Registry key for EncryptionProvider

J

jyu

The "Encryption and Rights Management in the 2007 Microsoft Office System"
white paper in the Enterprise Content Management starter kit (now part of
Sharepoint SDK) speaks of a registry key for specifying that a COM Add-in is
the EncryptionProvider for Office 2007.

<<< QUOTE >>>
Office automatically exposes whatever add-in is indicated by the registry
key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software \Microsoft \Office \12.0 \ Common \Security
\OpenXMLEncryption], which contains the hex data of a CLASSID as represented
by WCHARs for the encryption provider to use.
<<< ENDQUOTE >>>

I've tried various ways of formatting the value of the CLSID of the sample
Add-in, but none of them seem to work. What is the format used in this key?
Is there an example available that shows what it looks like? I'd appreciate
any help.
