I have used OO to work with files on our networked file server without difficulty since version 1.x. There is no problem in sharing the file. However, a notice doesn't pop-up if the file you open is currently being accessed by another network user. Instead, the file opens as read-only, and this is indicated in the window header by "(read only)" and by a prevention of changes to the document displayed. The user still has the "save as" option to proceed as necessary. This is similar to the MS office function, with the exception of the pop-up. So share away :) !
