Hey Wayne.

Renaming is a good idea.
Also something you can do which might potentially help you, for your file
folders in explorer, is to set your view to details. That way, when you
arrow down to a file, you can hit the right arrow and see the "date
modified". I believe you can also set different column attributes to show
different things. I haven't really looked into this a lot but I believe it's
very configurable. And it probably works for libraries as well, at least
within File Explorer.

Myself, I am old-school and always go by folders, and don't bother with the
library system.

Good idea.  I will rename the flash drive version.  The command alt-enter
gave me dates and that was a help.  There are times that I do a search in my
computer and find a doc but I don't know what folder it came from,
especially if it is old.  Having the path would be a help in that case.

I believe the problem you're encountering is that MS Word gives only the
filename in the title and not the path (e.g., d:\filename). For purposes of
knowing which is which file while working with both at the same time in
Word, I'd think you'd need to give the copy a slightly modified name, such
as by adding "copy" to it.

Hello all-

I have an MS Word 2007 doc that I am working on.  I backed it up to a flash
drive.  After saving it to the flash I opened it from that flash drive to
make sure it was a good copy. Now, when I open MS Word 2007 I have 2 files
with the exact same name. Can I determine which doc is from my Document
Library and which is from my flash?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Wayne
