Axis I
If you are referring to psychology, DID means: Dissociative Identity Disorder; previously known as MPD--Multiple Personality Disorder. Dissociative Identity Disorder was thought to better state the disorder, and was so re-named in the DSM-IV, published in 2000. MPD was the diagnosis prior to the publication of DSM IV--Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition, published 1994. There was a Text Revision in 2000, creating DSM-IV-TR At this time (Aug 2012), the DSM-V is in the process of consultation and preparation, and has an expected publication date of May 2013.

The axes in the DSM-IV helped to address the limitations of earlier classification systems by incorporating a multidimensional approach to diagnosis. This allowed for a comprehensive understanding of an individual's mental health, taking into account both clinical disorders and psychosocial factors. Additionally, the inclusion of separate axes for different aspects of diagnosis promoted a more systematic and structured approach to assessment and treatment planning.
The DSM-IV-TR utilized 5 axes along which clients are evaluated: Axis I for clinical disorders, Axis II for personality disorders and mental retardation, Axis III for medical conditions, Axis IV for psychosocial and environmental stressors, and Axis V for Global Assessment of Functioning.
The DSM IV Diagnostic manual was first published in 1994. The DSM IV - TR is a text revision published in 2000. So the most current edition is indeed the DSM IV - TR. The DSM V is due in 2012 and may be very different from the current style. See http://www.psych.org/mainmenu/research/dsmiv/dsmivtr.aspx for more info.
