Multiple user access to single project file

Is there a way to allow multiple users access to a single project file? We
only use Project Standard today and I need to have multiple resources update
the project plan in real time mode throughout the day.

Thanks in advance!

No. Sorry. Project only allows one person in a file read\write at a time.

For this kind of thing think about an application like Project Server
which allows resources to update via a web based time sheet.

Multiple can open and view the plan from a shared network folder but only
the first person to open the file can get read/write access to it. Everyone
else will be read-only.
