Locking users out of a database for 15 minutes a day

[Guest]

Hello:

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can lock users out of a
database for a short period of time each day. I just need a way to prevent
users from updating records so I can assure that I'm sending out accurate
data for a certain time period.

On this same note I'm interested in knowing if there is a way to kick users
out of the system if needed also.

I use a form (named KickEmOut) that I open at startup. It checks a value
in a table every 30 secinds and if set automatically terminates the
application after a warning is displayed for some predetermined time
(enough time to allow the user to save teir work). The form is opened in
hide mode and is not visible until the value is set to true.

I will send you the code if you like.
