That worked great...Thanks Matthew Shrewsbury, MCSE+Internet MCSE 2000 CCA Network Administrator -----Original Message----- From: Gunn, Jeff [mailto:Jeff.Gunn@xxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 3:23 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Normal.dot location Change the value in Word by going to Tools->Options and then the File Locations tab while in install mode. I think the setting is called "user templates". You can blow away the profiles on the box (if you don't already, on logout) so users get the new setting on next logon. If you don't want to delete user profiles, trap the registry location by running Regmon when you make the change, then export the key and push the value out by calling a reg file during logon, or something like that. -Jeff _____ From: Matthew Shrewsbury [mailto:MShrewsbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, July 22, 2004 3:05 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Normal.dot location Currently when I close word or outlook (Office XP, Win2K, SP4, FR3, SP3,) I get a message "Changes have been made that affect the global template, normal. Do you want to save those changes?" It appears that everyone is sharing the same normal.dot template. Shouldn't I spit this out so that everyone uses there own normal.dot template? If so how? Thanks for any suggestions. Matthew Shrewsbury, MCSE+Internet MCSE 2000 CCA Network Administrator
