turning off tracked change warning

[Andy Fish]

hi,

on tools/advanced/security (for word 2003; in word 2007 it's in the trust
centre) there is a checkbox called

"warn before printing, saving, or sending a file that contains tracked
changes or comments"

can anyone tell me how that setting is persisted? I am sure it must be in a
registry key but I've run process monitor and even tried diff-ing the
'before' and 'after' reg files and I can't figure it out for the life of me

thanks

Andy

Quite possibly, it's lumped in with a number of other options settings in the
Data key. As far as I know, no one has had any luck cracking the individual
options out of that key.

Hi Andy,

Quite possibly, it's lumped in with a number of other options settings in
the
Data key. As far as I know, no one has had any luck cracking the
individual
options out of that key.

Thanks for that, I see that it only writes the data key when word shuts down
which is why I hadn't been able to see the change before

as you say, it's obviously lumped in with a load of other settings so
difficult to change in isolation. fortunately i have found another
workaround to my problem now
