limit to one user at a time

Is there a way to put an access database on a network folder and set it up to
where only one user at a time can use the database?

Set permissions on the directory (Folder) so that you cannot write to the
folder (that is create a new object) in the folder.

This will prevent the lockfile from being created, which will then only
allow one person to use the database. Once the first user quits, another
user will be able to use the database.
