Default Tracked Changes Author - HKLM Registry overide?


Hi All, we run terminal services with Windows 2003. I am sure that there
was a way to overide the user info set in HKCU with information in HKLM so
that the name in HKLM is used in tracked changes.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\ Common\UserInfo

Is that not the case?
The reason I think I know is because I had an issue a few months back where
the setting in HKLM was blocking the correstponding setting in HKCU.

Thanks!

Default Tracked Changes Author - HKLM Registry overide?

Hi Aaron

Settings in the registry do not affect the name of the author attributed to
a tracked change. The author of a tracked change is the person whose name
appears at Tools Options User Information. Change yours to Buggs Bunny
for a moment to demonstrate, though I do advise you to change it back
straight away!

Hope this helps.
