How to create history within sharepoint comments or text field?
Posted on 2011-03-08
I can't remember whether i used a list, document, or workflow to show history in a field everytime I edited it. It would put the date, name and comment in the line above the text box. Now I can't figure out how i did it. Any thoughts.
