Hmm, this is going back a bit in the memory banks....With Office 2k many of the 
settings are done as local admin under Tools \ Options.  Many of the other 
options can't be configured without a 3'rd party app.  (auto signatures).
 
I believe Office 97 has many settings in the registry which you can probably 
set there or under Tools \ Options.  It's not under change user /install to my 
knowledge.

The files get saved to our network storage device not locally. Also, I'll check 
into the autosave feature. That brings another question about Office and 
Citrix. If I want to turn off a feature or add a new toolbar item for all to 
see, how would I do that? Log on as Administrator, chgusr/ install, and then 
make my changes?
 
Thanks,
Matt

Sounds like it could be a problem with your pathing or possibly your profiles.  
 
This would explain the periodic freezing (autosave feature turned on?)
 
Where are you saving your files to?  If you're saving to the client hard drive 
and the client is on a slow link...there's your answer.

Hi,
 
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem I'm having. We are 
using Office 97 with Metaframe 1.8 SP4/Windows 2000 and every once in a while 
while typing in Outlook or Word, etc the cursor will freeze for up to a minute 
before it comes back. This has also happened when saving documents in Office. 
Is this a known issue? We have three Citrix servers and it has happened on all 
three.
 
Thanks
