System.ProfileString Security

[Colin Steadman]

When writing to the registry with System.ProfileString the
Help information says that the key is stored here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Word

The registry is a bit of a mystery to me so I'd like to
know..

Suppose I have a template that reads and writes to a key
certain key in that location, and I logon and store a
value there. Would the next to logon pick up my value if
they opened the same template?

Thanks,

Colin

Hi Colin,
The answer I think is NO.
The Current_User is stored as part of the users profile which goes with
them. So unless they logon with the same userid and password (bad
practice) this key would not exist for the next user.
