First you need to find out if the software that you are using needs more than 1 license. A lot of programs that are network capable have a network version of the software available; meaning you might have to purchase more licenses in order to be able to share the data file. The computers need to be in the same workgroup with file and print sharing enabled. Whatever you deem as the "main" computer, find the data file and share it. This can be different depending on the software. Contact the vendor on specific instructions on how to share the information on your network. A server is a GOOD option to do this but it is not mandatory. Remember also to have a backup solution in place.
