David, it can be done using Doorway (I've tried it).  But... I'd think long 
and hard before allowing anyone outside of yourself that sort of access.  
User drops to TimEd.  User goes into "Doorway Mode".  User hits ALT-J.  User 
is now at the DOS prompt.  User formats your C drive. :-(  This may be a 
worst case scenario but there's loads of other nasty things a user can do 
while in TimEd-- like deleting all of the messages in MUFFIN with just a 
couple of keystrokes.
Best,
 -Jack
