Hi Daniel..
Conceptually this is not new to me, but when I go to the CVS site it looks like a complete
approach for tracking versions, and I'm not sure which flavor I should download. 
Do you have a recommendation for use with AB AFL and jscripts? 

Thanks
JOE

  Hi,
  Why don't you use CVS for version management of your source code? 
  In CVS you don't need to rename files and therefore you won't have
  this problem.
  WinCVS software is free and available at http://www.wincvs.org/

  Cheers,

  Daniel
