Hi Scott,
If I understood properly, your issue is: you do not want the Welcome to
Office dialogue box to display on terminal server.
Is that correct?
Based on my experience and research, to do this you need to modify the
registry key. Please refer to the following steps:
1. Click Start, type Regedit, in the Start Search box, and then click
regedit in the Programs list.
2. Expand the following subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\General
3. Right-click General, point to New, and then click Dword (32-bit) Value.
4. Type ShownOptIn, and then press ENTER to name the new entry.
5. Right-click ShownOptIn and then click Modify.
6. In the Value data box, type 00000001, and then click OK.
7. Close Registry Editor.
If this does not work, then you may need to do some additional steps as
below:
8. In regedit, expand to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Currentversion\Terminal
Server\Install\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\General
9. Repeat step 3 to step 7.
Alternatively, you can use a policy setting in the following subkey to make
this change:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\General
