How can two machines access a file edit the file and save changes at the same time? is a server required and can it be done with a server
 
Why didn't you put this in your other thread?

The reason it isn't possible is becuase what if one person makes some changes then saves it. The changes then would not be reflected in the other persons document, they save it and the orignal changes are lost.

The only time i've seen a document being edited "live" by different people is using by MSM application sharing. There may be similar programs avaliable, i'm not sure
 
You could also setup an FTP Site using IIS and set it to only allow one use at a time to login.

edit - Nevermind, didn't see your other thread.
 
There are some complex packages for this type of task.... For programming.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
