SharePoint 2010 Document Coauthoring
Document co-authoring is a new feature within SharePoint 2010 and Microsoft Office Word, OneNote and PowerPoint 2010. When multiple users edit a document on a SharePoint site, changes saved back while editing are available to other users also editing the document.
This functionality can be disabled by checking out the document before editing. Users can individually check out documents as a way to lock them, so other users cannot co-author with them. Co-authoring requires that check-out not be required on any document library used for co-authoring documents. Requiring check-out in a document library is one way to disable co-authoring for the whole library. Co-authoring functionality can also be disabled on the client side using Group Policy.
