Office settings for Word XP and 2003

Hello all, I am looking for some information on the storing of values
set in the Tools>options of office applications (I need to look into
all but I think Word and Excel are probably the most important here) I
have looked into the RegOptions Macro, but that seems to be only a
small subset of the values that can be set.. Where is everything
else?

For Example the regOptions for Save are BackgroundSave and
DefaultFormat. However there are 16 different settings to change on
that tab... can all options be saved? another option is if I want to
hold on to the last 8 docs in my MRU where does this info get saved?

The reason I am doing this is we are trying to do some migration type
stuff in both a desktop environemnt and a CITRIX and would lik to have
our users do as little work as possible after they are moved to reset
their machines up.

Thanks so much in advance!

Kurt

In Word, many of the Tools|Options settings are stored in the Word data
key in the registry. The Word 2002(XP) data key is
\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Word\Data. I believe
the Word 2003 data key is
\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\Data, but I
can't confirm this at the moment.
