Problems updating a table since users are logged on.

My problem is this.

I have a Table that needs updating, but it seems it cannot be done since
other people in my company are logged on. It would be easy to do this if
people would just log off, but the amount of accounts logged in makes it hard
to get them all to log off. Is there a way to set this to be "one user"? We
have user accounts that are connected to different groups. I realy need to
make it impossible for people to login on for a while.

You should be able to edit a table with others logged into the database. I
have over 50 logged in without problems. Make sure that everyone has Shared
logon:

Tools ... Options ... Advanced tab, the Default Open made should be Shared.
Also make sure that the locking is set to either No Locks or Edited Record.
