In my experience this multi user update issue in Excel has proved very problematic, causing loads of confusion to users.
I would suggest to avoid letting more than one users update the same file at the same time (or find other ways to cope with this).

One way I can think of is to automatically create a local user_copy of the file (e.g. on the user's hard disk) and let the user update it and then save it back to a specified (shared) folder.

I'd be very interested to hear from others on their experience on this.
