Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
In psychology, a disorder refers to a pattern of thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that significantly impairs an individual's ability to function in daily life. These disorders are typically recognized by mental health professionals based on specific criteria outlined in diagnostic manuals such as the DSM-5.
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.
DSM stands for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, released by the American Psychiatric Association. DSM-IV and DSM-V are just the fourth and fifth editions of the manual, respectively. The fourth edition was released in 1994, and the fifth edition is currently in the planning and consultation phase, on its way to being published. So the fifth edition is just an update to the previous edition.
There is no specific Axis II DSM code for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In the DSM-5, ADHD is classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder and is diagnosed on Axis I.

I don't see it in the DSM II published in 1968. It is in the DSM III published in 1980.

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 DSM-IV is written and revised by the American Psychiatric Association.
