In perforce, whenever a binary file like doc, xls or ppt files are checked out, it is opened in exclusive lock mode. So no other person can check-out that file until the current person who checked-out submit(check-in) it. But there is a way to check-out binary files in these scenario
Check out your binary file as shown below
p4 edit -t binary //knowledgebase/ctweb/main/releases/AXM/Server/Moneypenny/Dev/moneypenny_code_review.xls
-t binary option will allow you to check-out binary file even it is locked. After your modification, you can check it back in without any issues
