Hi Evan,
 
Office uses the user info under 
HKCU\software\microsoft\office\xx.0\common\userinfo to identify a user. If you 
installed office as yourself and never managed this information, then you "own" 
all the copies of word etc running.
 
A bit of scripting will fix the problem ;-)
 
regards,

Subject: [THIN] Office apps show my user having documents locked



Every time someone on Citrix opens a document and gets a file locked error, it 
always shows my name.  I was logged in when I installed office (in install 
mode), and I'm also a user of the Citrix servers, but why does it always show 
me having the file locked, and not the real person with the file locked?
