Default Read only message caused by camping out in file

In my office we have different departments that use one main worksheet that
everyone fills in their section's data. I continuously get the READ ONLY
NOTIFY message because the file is being used by someone else or they are in
the worksheet and have left their desk doing something else. I have to walk
around the office and find out who is in the file and ask them to get out.
Is there a way to display the username that is currently using the file when
the read only message comes up? thanks!
