Much of the work I do involves working on web applications for a small 
service based company. We also have another developer who does the same type 
of work in another part of the country. We have finally learned to make sure 
we have the most recent version of a file before beginning work on an 
update.
I had been working on an update to add second language functionality to four 
pages, finished my work and was testing when she sends me an email informing 
me that she has just completed updating the very same four files that I had 
been working on for the last four days. So, the version of the file I had 
became out of date before I could make my own update. She is always very 
good about informing me of such things although after the fact. So, now I 
have to get the new version of these four files and completely redo the work 
I have already done.

I tend to use Dreamweaver 95% of the time while she uses Visual Studio.We 
are set up with a development server and two load-balanced web servers 
running Windows Server 2003 IIS etc. Does anyone have any recommendations on 
a system for maintaining integrity in such a situation? What have other 
people been using?
