Can I set FE BE permissions while users are logged in?

I have an instance where the majority of users can access the backend without a problem. They have FE's created with the Office XP packaging wizard.

The one user has a full copy of Office 2000 in her machine and I just copied the FE to her machine and it went well the first time (after selected the appropriate references). After I had made a modification on the master copy of the FE, and overwrote the previous version on her machine, I keep getting "You do no have exclusive access .....", and I need to recompile the FE on her machine to ensure that there are no missing references etc.

I have given her full permissions on the switchboard form so that I may recompile the whole lot, but it won't let me do this because of the exclusive error message.

Does anyone have any comments about setting permissions while users are logged in, because of the fact that the BE has opened a .ldb file, or is this not the case? "All is not as it seems"
