Force Closing MSAccess file on NT Server

Hi all,
I daily need to force close a shared MS Access database(*.mdb) on my NT 4.0 server.
(Users have been told to close the db at the end of the day but apparently at least one of them manages not to ) An updation process actually needs to rename the db as an "old" one, and this process gets stuck if any user has accessed the db and forgotten to close it.

Can anyone help me write a script to force close the .mdb file which i can run using a job scheduler ? Where can I find documentation related to this ?

Thanks a bunch,
