Fred, While I haven't tried this with a recent version, the following was true for the 1.4 version. If you do try to open the document when it is already open on another computer, the document is corrupted, and you'll have to roll back to a previous back-up, so it is very important that you deconflict with one another and close the file before someone else opens it. I had played around with an apple script that would create a lock file in the directory and prevent a second user from opening the file, but I didn't get very far with it before I had to devote my time to other things.
