SharePoint Document Library: Print Version Number on Excel File
I have version control enabled on a SharePoint document library and I'd like the documents in the library (Excel files) to print out with the current version number. Is there a way to do this? If not...

Hello SargentSynergy,
You can the Version column to the view. Printing the version number would come from within Excel and not SharePoint.
I hope this helps.

Norman Young I want the version number from the SharePoint library to be available in the Excel file (visible on the Excel file in the header or footer when printed). The reason for this is so you can identify the document version after it's been printed off.
Having the version number (or revision date) on the documents is ISO requirement for many corporations and SharePoint should support this functionality.
