How can I determine who has a lock on a shared file without any admin rights?

I'd like to figure out from my windows 7 workstation who on the server 2008 who has a particular file locked.  

I have no admin rights of any kind or access to the server.  We've outsourced this now, but I would still like to be able to see who is using a few specific files without having to call our outsourcing company everytime.

Thanks for your help
Under the circumstances, that sounds like a reasonably good alternative.
