We have had issues with this before as well... Our workaround was to use a small VBS script in the NETLOGON share... Script was this:- Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") strUser = objSysInfo.UserName Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUser) Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application") objWord.UserName = objUser.givenName & " " & objUser.SN objWord.UserInitials = Left(objUser.givenName, 1) & Left(objUser.SN, 1) objWord.Quit (simply copy and paste the above into a text file, rename it to have a vbs extension) Any other method suggested would work though =) Kind Regards, Jaime From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andy Friar Sent: 02 September 2008 09:20 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Suppress MS Word User Name dialog If your removing Roaming profiles then you should really have a look into Hybrids, be it flex, appsense or others.. Rgds A ________________________________ From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Angela Smith Sent: Tue 02/09/2008 05:26 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Suppress MS Word User Name dialog Hi Is there a way to suppress the MS Word User Name dialog that pops up on first use. Since I am removing MS roaming profiles, Im implementing folder redirection. Unfortunately, this Word setting is stored in the registry so its created in the local Profile on the Citrix server. These local profiles are removed on logout so users will always be prompted for this info. Is there a way to either populate these Word settings on first use automatically or a way to suppress it all together? How do people manage this if roaming profiles are not used?
