Can you help? I created a custom Office 2000 package for Win2k. I'm trying to lockdown the PC, with limited access to any network or registry settings. To run Photo Editor, Office 2000 needs to write to the following: HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\SHARED TOOLS\GRAPHIC FILTERS. Does anyone know how to do this using ORCA (Microsoft's MSI editor)? http://searchwindowsmanageability.discussions.techtarget.com/WebX?[EMAIL PROTECTED]^[email protected]/18!viewtype=threadDate&skip=&expand= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= FREE NEWSLETTER | Windows Administration Get weekly expert technical tips and tricks from industry experts, to help you manage and support your Windows network.
