custom .adm not working


Recommended Posts

I created a custom .adm to disable stationary in Outlook 2002. It shows as

as a template under User->Administrative Template.

 

It shows up in registry entry on the workstation after applied in:

HK_Current_User\Micrsoft\Policies\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\MailSettings.

 

NewStationary

 

However it does not change any of the Stationary settings in Outlook. Nor

does it change the stationary registry key in

"HK_Current_User\Micrsoft\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\MailSettings".

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Below is my .adm:

 

CLASS USER

 

CATEGORY Stationary

 

POLICY "Choose Outlook Stationary"

 

KEYNAME "Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\MailSettings"

 

PART "Select Stationary" EDITTEXT

VALUENAME "NewStationary"

END PART

END POLICY

END CATEGORY

Re: custom .adm not working

 

NewStationary is a REG_EXPAND_SZ. I would like to either have this key

deleted or set to the value of 'blank'. Probably deleted is the best way.
