Question : Shared vs Exclusive Mode - Automatic Switching

Some of my users' databases are on private drives (so they should open in Exclusive Mode for speed), and others are on shared drives (so they should open in shared mode).  (I know, they should all be using front ends on private drives - I'm working on it.)
I use code to check the drive and the mode, and reconfigure the mode if required.  But the only way I know to change from exclusive to shared involves closing the database and then reopening it, which is a pain for a user who switches back and forth between private and shared databases several times a day. Is there a better way?
