Default update in the workbook by different users

Don't use a shared workbook, you will always loose some of the data.
Excel isn't design to handle conflicts that occur when multiple peole
read and write data.

Instead of using a shared workbook store your data use an access
database. *You can read and write to the Access database from a macro
inside Excel VBA. *Use Excel as a front-end program where the user
enters and retrieves data and make the Access Database the shared item.

Thanks Joel, Please can you elaborate on this. This all looks very
difficult.
Do you have any idea about Windows sharepoint.
