If you're running NT I found a command that can be run from a batch file that closes all open resources on a server.  If you would like it, email me and I will send you a link to the MS support page.  It ain't pretty, but neither is a database that is not properly maintained because some user forgot to log out.  I am running it now, set to "drop" everyone at a specified time each night, do a complete OUTPUT/INPUT (which corrects more errors than a RELOAD) and backup the files, among some other required tasks.  As long as you can make sure that there are no processes running, it works well.
 
Forget about trying to ask politely or trying to keep track of users in a table.  You'll drive yourself crazy.

Subject: Disconnecting Users...Help

How does one disconnect users so that a RELOAD or AUTOCHECK can be done from a server or workstation???
