Program Manager

Does anyone use a program manager for keeping track of programs , revisions and prints and such? I am having a tough time keeping my programs and prints situated. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Wolog,

A shop I used to work at had directories named by the part number, and inside there would be the current cad file, cam file, and drawing if there was a separate one from the cad file. and also an old folder, where the old revisions went. Of course all the part numbers were inside folders that had customers names on them.

Hope this helps. It's a good system, that's simple to manage and doesn't require extra software to manange.

Thanks for the replies, but I was looking for the expensive, time consuming and cumbersome route to managing my programs. Ha. I was just thinking beyond the Windows folders thing. I really wanted a way to keep track of the revisions . I may just do what you suggested big_mak. I guess if I organize the folders correctly then it should not be quite so painful. And its free! Well almost free after Bill Gates gets his cut for Windows. Thanks Guys.
