Do you have access to SharePoint? You could then put the forms into a library and turn on comments and version control. I'd say forget that it's InfoPath, you're just updating a normal file on a network share (by the looks of it), so is each file not getting overwritten?

Hey guys, I am very new to infopath and this is definetly a newb question. So I have created a form that will serve as a running maintenance log that can be submitted periodically or when needed to provide a snapshot of a ship's maintenance status. I published the template to a network location and then saved files for each ship in other network folders for each shop.

The template:

The files in their shop folder:

The issue I am having is that each file will be updated by multiple users but none of them can save their updates. They can get access to the file, can fill it out, but can't save. I gave all the users full access to the file, the template, and the folders they are in (via left click, properties, security) but still no luck. How do I allow them to save their input?
