Backup a access database

Hello,

I try to make a backup of a access database.
To make it, I make a Filecopy, but some of my custommers have a problem :
They work at 2 or 3 on the database, but when a user want to make a backup
and another one is working on the database (exclusively locked), the backup
is bad : when a user want to use the backup, he has the message telling
that the database is locked by another user.
Is there something to force the users out of the database before making a
backup or (better) a way to backup the database without the locked flag?

Thank you
Marc Allard
