Hmmm. Thanks for that Neil. Unfortunately that value doesn't exist in my registry, even after setting the timeout manually within Word. Very odd. -----Original Message----- From: Braebaum, Neil [mailto:Neil.Braebaum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 29 October 2003 13:51 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Word 2000 AutoRecover time setting? -----Original Message----- From: Angus Macdonald [mailto:Angus.Macdonald@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 29 October 2003 13:34 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Word 2000 AutoRecover time setting? Does anyone know where in the registry the Word 2000 AutoRecover time interval is stored? I want to script a change for all users but haven't been able to find the key yet. Looking at the ADM file, looks like it should be:- HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Word\Options\AutoRecover_192_8 quite possibly you'd need to have the BackGroundSave value set, too.
