Hello there,
More specifically, you cannot link the same several project files with several resource files (pools); on the other hand, there is no limit to the nunmber of project files you can link to one single resource file.
To use the "resource group" field in the resource sheet, or to use the resource breakdown structure in the custom fields is the best answer to your needs.

Due to the way MSP generates assignments you can only share resources between two project files at any time.
If you had one resource pool, and used the "Resource group" field, when you come to work on your plans you could then filter on the resources you want to see, either by using the drop down menu in the resource view or when using the "Assign Resources" box check the "Resource list options" and use the filter options to view the relevent resources.
Hope this helps.
Will
