Revision control

[M -dot- Vina-Baltsas -at- mindray -dot- com]

I write Ops manuals for a medical device manufacturer. We use revision 
control for our manuals but we do not indicate anywhere in the manual 
which version of the software the manual relates to.  So, when a client 
calls our Service department or one of our clinical educators and says 
that they need an additional manual, we don't know which manual to send 
them because that history is not maintained anywhere in the manual. 

How do the rest of you manage this?
