Word Document: Ensuring that only one user is updating at a time

I'm looking to have multiple users access and update a word document
file that will be stored on a shared drive. Obviously this will create
problems if two people have the file open at the same time and are
making revisions to the file. One could erase the other's work.
Is there a way to ensure that word will only allow one user write
access at a time? There has to be a better way to handle this.
In general I am trying to set up a documentation file that everyone
will access (read) and update (write). Is Microsoft Word the best
platform for this? We need advanced tables and graphs, so a wiki site
is almost certainly out. I want it to be as dynamic as possible, so
HTML is probably not the best option either. Am I going about this the
wrong way?
