MS_IDLETIMEOUT variable

If I set this variable will Microstation just shut down? I have seen a reference that says Microstation will warn the user to be shut down. Will it give the warning and then shut down or does the user need to accept the terms? Also, will it shut down Microstation if the user has something like InRoads running with unsaved work? I would assume that InRoads would prompt to save any work and would need user interaction before Microstation could shut down. One last thing, if the user has Microstation running and locks there computer and leaves for the day, will Microstation still be able to shut down without user interaction?

I have users that are in the habit of leaving Microstation running and leaving for the day. When I come in early to make modifications to resource files I am unable to because the files are being accessed. Since Select Server no longer allows me to see who has Microstation running I do not have an easy way to see what machine is causing the issue.

Any other suggestions to accomplish this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike
