Question about new users

M

mc123

We are running Windows 2000 with officeXP. When ever we add a new user to the
computer and open an office application such as Word or Excel it goes through
a mini set-up the first time it is used. Is this normal? Can this be
prevented for example click on word and it opens with no setup screen.

No. The applications must register themselves with Windows under the new
user's folder in the Windows registry so that it can save their particular
settings separate from the other users. The only way to avoid this would be
to have one setup for everyone...not something I'd appreciate 'cause I'd
kill the first time somebody deletes my cool macro.
