I just want to confirm some thing about version control.

When I put a document under version control I can see the various versions on the metadata tab.  If I open any of the versions from the metadata tab I noticed the document always opens Read-Only and if I make changes and close the document I get prompted to save and things getting confusing.

Is the function of opening the document as Read-Only by design?  So I should be instructing users to never open a document they want to edit from the version pane and always double-click the document in the Browser window if I want to edit it.  Correct?

Thanks

Sandy
