Default features that help multiple users edit the same file?

If€”in addition to the Word features Terry mentioned€”traceability and
automatic version control is important, you might also want to look into
document management systems such as SharePoint.

Versions were a feature of pre-2007 Word and were VERY buggy and to be

the document would explode!

What are the features in word to facilitate two people editing the same

find that menuitem. Perhaps this is for an older version of word. So where
did this feature move to?
