hi all... i'm having trouble and i'm not totaly sure this is the right forum... but i need help.
i'm deploying an access database via an instalation from cd.
i won't be around when it's installed and i know from past experience that when the install finishes and the program is launched that the preferences i set in the "tools\ options" menu will not be kept, but instead replaced by the users machine settings. in most cases someone needs to manually reconfigure these settings, (not a big job, but hey you know clients.....)in windows nt/98 the registry keys point to a master mdb which i can easily alter from within my installation routine, however i can find no such master file on win xp machines.

how do i force the users version of access to use my defaults?

thanks in advance
