Even source safe doesn't technically make the project multi-user. Basically, each user has a copy of the development directory structures, libs, files, etc on their local drive. You also create a shared drive with the project on it.

As a programmer adds to or updates a file, after it is tested they will put in on the shared drive. Other developers will have to copy down these new files to get the changes.

What Source Safe does for you is somewhat automate the notifying everyone someone is using/modifying a file (check-out), updating (check-in) and copying out (get latest version) the files. I would recommend you designate a librarian to do this, only the librarian has write access to the shared directory.
