Can you please provide more info. Is this file saved on a local server or in Sharepoint? Are you accessing using the desktop app or the browser based excel? What happens when 2 people access together? Does 1 save and the other get an error or does 1 save and the other overwrites?
If you have it on Sharepoint and use the web-based Excel you should see each other editing live.
If you have on local server then 2nd person should get warning that file isn't available.
