Win2k and Outlook/Office 2000

[sharyn]

I believe this is a permissions error but I'm not sure exactly how to fix it. I have 2 different problems but I'm pretty sure they are related.

First, when my user launches Outlook2000, he gets the message asking him if he wants to make Outlook his default mail reader, EVERY time he opens it. He clicks "yes", but it asks him again the next time. He is not a power user, just a regular domain user. I am assuming there is some registry setting that he doesn't have permissions to write to because when I log on as an admin, I don't receive this message.

In a separate instance, but more then likely the same problem, another user continues to get the message about accepting the license agreement everytime she launches any of her Office 2000 applications. Same situation..she is a reg. domain user, not a power user, and when I log on as an admin., I do not see this message.

Does anyone know the registry entries that these users need write permissions to in order for them to not see these messages????

Thanks,
Sharyn

We *are* running Office 97 on both of these boxes.

Why would I not be getting these messages when logged in as an administrator??

Office 97 runs for all users, including the administrator.
