Multi-user writing of XML document

dotnet xml:

Are there any white papers or sample apps or Message
threads that handle the issue of multiple users viewing,
editing and saving XML files?

I have a few very rudimentary ideas (like only letting one
edit at a time - yuck<g>).

Normally I use a database to do this so I only have to
worry about the specific record being changed, not the
whole file being overwritten, but I have an application
which won't be allowed access to a database to handle this
so I need to handle it in the XML file.

XmlDocument in.Net doesn't provide any synchronization.
It is safe for reading from multiple threads.
User is responsible for synchronization if one of the threads edit
XmlDocument.
