Admin forced check ins.

Can the administrator force check in files that have been checked out by other users?

Thank you,

Only if you are on the computer that has the file checked out.

  Todd, will you elaborate on this. I am on the computer where the files are checked out, logger in as the admin, but do not know how to accomplish this.
  
  Thank you,
  Tom

    Tom,
    
    Right click on the checked out file and choose check in.
    You will get a dialog box with a warning that the file is checked out by another user. Check the box under check in and enter a comment, then choose Check in. You will get another prompt asking if your sure you want to check in, click Yes.
