German term

Bearb./DW

German to English Bus/Financial General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Can anyone tell me what this stands for. It is part of the letter heading of an Austrian document:

Wien, 19.10.2007
GZ.: 07042A
Bearb./DW: Surname/12

I guess Bearb. is Bearbeiter? But what does DW stand for?

Thanks in advance.
