Dezember 2000 12:27 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: Re: disable viewing properties dialog What you actually want is to set AllowProperties and then to set the _local_ per-user properties for the Default user to the required settings, on each machine. The Global per-user settings can be modified by the user in the registry, therefore AllowProperties=0 makes no sense if you read them.
