Versioning and Change Control in Excel. What are the popular ways oftracking versions and/or changes

I suppose this is really two separate questions really. Just curious
what are the methods employed by the users of this group for
spreadsheet versioning, and also what are the methods employed to
track changes within a spreadsheet.

I know that 2003 had a version tracker as well as "Track Changes"
functions, but they were rather hopeless in deployment.

Are there any add-ins or other type of development software that
people here have used that work well?

I've looked at various software packages, but most are very expensive
and require hardware and use of a network or communal type server. I
was hoping there was something easier and less expensive to use.
Anybody here run into anything that fits this bill?

Not an answer to your query but where in Excel 2003 do you find a version
tracker function?

Something I've been missing? Highly likely<g>

Actually, I was confused. There's a "Versions" menu item under File in
Word. I thought it was in Excel too, but after a second look, looks
like its not there. Sorry.

That will share the workbook and track changes made but I don't see where it
would track versioning.
