For multi users you would want a Shared workbook (Tools-Share Workbook) and
save it to a public drive accessible by all users. VBA will not run in shared mode, but it will display the results of macros that are ran in normal mode. In-cell changes can be made in shared mode for all to see. In order to update a shared workbook with macros it would need to be opened by one person only (probably the owner), unshare the workbook, run your macros, then set workbook to Share again, and save it back to the public drive. As far as workbook size and speed, obviously bigger is slower. The limitations are governed by the computer that is opening the workbook, CPU, RAM, network MBps, etc. A computer running WindowsXP, Excel 2003, dual core CPU and 2 G of ram should have no problem with a 30 MB file.
