Are you suggesting that if a Microsoft Word document is stored on a file server on a network that's disconnected from the internet, two instances of Word running on separate computers can simultaneously edit that document?
I don’t believe that’s accurate.

This link leads to an article that says nothing about Microsoft Word documents.

I've never seen this either. IIRC word would put a lock file in the directory to prevent more than one instance editing at a time.
