Default Shared workbook using a Data Entry form

I shared workbook can bed used in excel but it is not recommended. Excel
isn't designed to handle multiple access simultaneously. It would be better
to put the database in Access which is designed for simultaneous entry.

You can desing the form in either Excel or Access. Then write a maco to
store the form data into the Access Database. Excel macros can write data
into an Access database. Some people prefer to use Excel as a front end to
the database becaue more people are familar with use Excel than Access.

Can a workbook be set up to share among users if a data entry form is being
used to capture input?
