I believe your belief is a misinterpretation of what is actually happening. If 
you have the network file locking feature turned on, there will be a .lck file 
for every file you open (not just the book file) exactly as Syed described.

But the point is that you do not need to put up with .lck files _at all_ unless 
your files are located on a shared network drive and unless there are other 
people who could potentially open some of those files at the same time that you 
are working on them without telling you. If the files are on your local system 
(i.e. are not accessible to other FM users), if they are in a content 
management or configuration management system, or if you are the only 
FrameMaker user at your company, there is no reason at all to have the network 
file locking feature turned on.
