We thought of just manually changing files to read-only before editing
them, but of course this stops YOU from editing it as well. Duh. But I'm
not sure what you're saying here... a description of the basics of source
control software, not suggestions for "manual" source control?

Homesite's backup systems and CD-Rs serve us well. A full "source control"
app seems silly when all we want is a notification when someone else has
the same file open.
We're on the same network. How does MS Office do it so effortlessly? Do
Word and Excel have a built-in CVS system?! Or is there just a bit of
Windows scripting that can replicate this? The more I look at it, the more
it seems odd that this basic little idea isn't built into Windows
drive/file sharing.
Bah.
