Hi Cbrundell,
Please review the Teamwork ( http://smartbear.com/viewarticle/70014/ ) article to learn how you can set up your work.
Unfortunatley this does not cover the scenario I am talking about, I am not talking about having a shared project it is a question about testcomplete being hosted on a virtual machine and the project files located here as well and both users being able to use the program and project at the same time
Take a look at this link

I haven't set Test Complete up on a virtual machine before but this seems to explain it well. Using this information with the information previously provided about using a shared project should be able to get you setup the way you need it.
Thanks, having read the documents it appears the limit is 1 active user per license so to use on a VM would need 2 licenses for 2 active users. Or the other solution is a shared project with 2 sepreated TestComplete instances using this as described.
I can't see how two users can use the same program instance, on the same machine, at the same time. Sounds impossible to me.
Be careful if you're using VM's as well. I have my node locked TestComplete IDE running in a VM. You need to have your license enabled to do it, and you need to be careful to set up the VM correctly. If things like the CPU-ID or MAC address of the virtual network adapter change, they can break the license association.
