Vista - Access File on both PC at the same time

I have problem sync file between 2 PCs

PC1 (At home)
- update the files X at 12:12pm

PC2 (At work)
- update the files X at 12:20pm

my question here is how the X update the content between the two users?

Is there a posible way sync the update, if the Foldershare cant achive?


Thanks your reply,

You need to have them both online at the same time or else use a third PC3
as a server, and that one could run 24/7. It would take only something
really chap and simple, such as a retired old XP Home notebook connected at
your home, to perform that function.

Thanks Tony,

I got it working, but i found:

PC1 - When X file is udpate
- new file generate as X-PC1 (60mb)
- the X file remain the same name (X only 56mb)

PC2 - When X file is udpate
- new file generate with X-PC2 (60mb)
- the X file remain the same name (X only 56mb)

How do we merge all the change from X-PC1 and X-PC2 into X the orginal file?

Does Foldershare help me with the above senario?

Can you suggest other alternative solution?

Thanks million,

Only if you modify unsynchronised files, that will happen. FolderShare
does this to protect your data even if you are not synchronising. Any
different approach would cause new changes to be deleted on synchronizing.

Choose which is the best file and delete all others on both computers and
allow that best file to become synchronised to the other computer. If you
now modify that "best" file any on either computer then you MUST allow it
first to become synchronised before making any further changes to that same
filename on the other computer.
No, because you have been using the system improperly. You must respect
the fact that only one version of any file name is the correct library
version and ensure that one on any computer before making more changes.
Follow the rule and all will be well.

Thanks for your reply Tony. That clear out my queries.
