Office 2003 registry settings

Does anyone know where I can find a list of all the possible Office 2003
registry settings?

Thanks,
Jeff

As far as I know, that is "unpublished" information. You may find a few of
the registry entries documented, but only a few. Vendors generally don't
publish information that is, strictly speaking, not _needed_ by users and
which _might_ change from software release to software release (and thus
cause them troubles when it is used by users and the user's tweak no longer
works when a new release comes out).

The Access System Tables, too, are "undocumented", for similar reasons. Some
people, in the past, have dug into them and used them for various purposes.
However, I believe there were System Table changes (sometimes as drastic as
deleting or adding a new System Table) in every release of Access, so far.

Larry,

Thanks for the info!

More specific, we are looking for a way to change the default database
version when you convert an Access 97 database in Access 2003. When users
convert an Access 97 database, the default version to convert to is Access
2000, not Access 2002 -2003. We would like to change this default to Access
2002-2003 file format, but I can not find anywhere to change the default.
I've looked through the Access11.ADM templates and the ORK Custom Maintenance
Wizard, but the option to change this default is nowhere to be found.

Thanks again for you time!
Jeff
