Hi all. We are an OEM manufacturer and I do most of the plc programming for our machines. When I write a program on my desktop I save it to our engineering departments server, then when I need to load it into a machine I load a copy of it on my laptop and download it. Lately it has been so busy that this program management thing is getting away from me. I will make a debug adjustment with the laptop and then get pulled of to something else. I cannot remember if I placed the modified program back on the server or not.
I would really love to have some sort of a check in and check out system, but when I go on a service call, my peers may need to load a program for the same machine back at the plant.
I simply don't have time to compare the modification date properties of the files. I was wondering if any of you guys have the same problem, and if you use program management software.
I know that if I just took the time to store the programs right away I would not have this problem, but time is against me lately. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
