Abstract
A server communicates with a number of terminal devices. Each terminal device stores a file having a same file name. The server generates a trace log. The trace log records modification of the file in each of the terminal devices. The server further determines whether or not one of the terminal devices opens the file, searches in the trace log according to the file name of the file to find all the modifications corresponding to the file, determines the latest modification among all the modifications in the terminal devices according to the modification time corresponding to each of the found modifications, and displays at least a part of content of the found latest modification in the terminal device which currently runs the file.
