Default WorkBook file extension for all users of BEx 7 in Offce 2007

Hi Experts
We recently started using office 2007 with BEx 7.
However, many users still has Office 2003 installed.
I am looking to set the default file extension for all users to be .XLS.
I know that this option is available in Client level (Global Settings - Use XLS file format ) but I require that the checkbox will be automatically checked.
Is there a way to do it?
Thanks,
Yaniv

Hello Yaniv,
Yes, you can maintan them globally.
this can be done in registry under :   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\BEx\Analyzer.
   UseXLSFileFormat
   Type: String Value
   Value true or false
For more information refer to SAP Note 1254112
Regards,
Arvind

  • Changing default open with for file type for all users

    hello
    can I change the default app to open a specific file type for all users and not juist for my user?
    i am admin for my mac mini.
    tnx
    gil

    What applications are offered for open with depends on the application itself informing the system it can open certain files, plus your own custom selections for opening files. Evidently the alternate app you want to use does not claim to be able to open the files you are assigning it. If you have a plist editor and know how to use it you could edit the info.plist file inside the application itself to add the file type you want to the application's declaration of file types it will open. Then restart so the system will read that declaration. I think it would be far easier to simply launch the application and then drop a file you want it to open onto its icon in the Dock.

  • File Associations for all users

    How does one go about changing file associations for file types for all users? I've recently installed iWork '08 on a computer on the network and now when I log in as a user it wants to open all of my Excel and Word Documents in Numbers and Pages respectively. How can I get it to default back to Microsoft Office for all of my Microsoft Office documents for all users. The iWork '08 install seemed to just take over, so it must be possible.
    Thanks!

    I too need this information, but seeing it's been over a year and no one replied to the thread starter.....

  • How to install an extension for "all users"

    I want to install a quantity of extensions for ALL users of FF on a PC running XP. There used to be a way of doing this but I have forgotten the method.
    I know to save the .xpi file for each extension, and that there is some folder in a common area where these files are placed so that each User gets them installed the next time they run FF

    You may have to log in as the Administrator user rather than
    "run as adminstrator".
    Beyond that, are there really enough users on a system that
    they can't install the extension(s) they need themselves?

  • How can I install and activate extensions for all users

    Hi, within the version 7.0.1 I am able to install noscript extension for example for all users.
    With version 8.0 the extensions are disabled by default, so I do not install it on company computers.
    How can I manage extensions and settings for all users in 9.0?
    Best regards
    Jens

    Hi John,
    I appreciate your prompt response.
    We have an Australian client here in the Philippines and would want to purchase an adobe software under Creative Cloud Licensing.
    Since this type of licensing is not yet available here in the Philippines, they are suggesting that they can purchase it in their country.
    My main concern is, will there be any conflict upon installing/activating an adobe software under Creative Cloud which will be purchased from their country?
    And what are the steps for installing and activating a software under this type of license.

  • How to set default .PDF file extension for Form Downloads

    I am trying to find a way of setting the PDF file extension when I download forms.
    I author the forms under a Plus subscription and am then downloading the forms under a basic subscription Collaborator account (diffrent person)
    If I don't include .pdf as the file type when downloading a form with a unique name as the Collaborator, it downloads without a file extension.
    Remembering to continually add the pdf file extension is a pain so I'm hoping there is away of setting this as a defaulet for my 'collaborator' account ?

    Firstly, apologies for multiple posts, I received messages saying my comment hadn't posted and also checked my history before re-submitting.
    Okay, the process is
    1. Log in as the Author account and I can rename the file without having to set the extension
    2. Log in as the Collaboartor account - same PC, browser etc and it doesn't save with a default file extension; HOWEVER, I have done this whilst also being logged in on a diffrent browser as the Author
    3 I have just tried logging out as Author and only being in as the collaborator and the form downloaded with a default PDF.
    4. I had someone else log in as the collaborator from thei PC and browser whilst I was still signed inunder my author account and again they were unable to save as PDF by default
    This has me wondering if there is anything at play when you've got multiple Users?

  • Registering Plugins/Extensions for All Users on Windows 7

    I am deploying firefox in a shared desktop environment and they all require the same firefox extensions.
    I have downloaded the .xpi files and when I install them it only appears for me and not for the other users on the PC.
    I need to be able to install these extensions once and have them available to all users on that PC.
    I tried the -install-global-extensions command, but looks like that was removed from Firefox 10. Does anyone have any suggestions to my problem?
    thanks!

  • How do I install a Thunderbird add-on for all users? Putting the XPI file into Extensions folder didn't work.

    I'm trying to install Enigmail 1.8.2 for all users. I thought I read somewhere that you don't need to unpack the XPI file.
    Whilst writing this, I did some experimenting and found a solution, but it's messy (see below). Is there an easier way?
    Fresh install of Thunderbird 31.6 on Windows 7 x64. Have observed the following:
    1. If I install the extension for one user via the Add-Ons GUI (from the marketplace, not from a local file), it does work. The Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Extensions folder is empty. Folder {847b3a00-7ab1-11d4-8f02-006008948af5} is created in Appdata\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions\staged\ and moved from staged to extensions when TB is restarted.
    2. If I download the XPI file from Enigmail site and copy it to Program Files(x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\Extensions folder, then Thunderbird's Extensions screen says "You don't have any add-ons of this type installed".
    3a. If I rename the xpi to zip (e.g. enigmail-1.8.2-tb+sm.xpi.zip) then I can open it and see that the contents are similar to what was created at point (1). If I unzip the contents, then Thunderbird doesn't recognise the add-on, unless I rename the folder to the GUID above (which could be found in install.rdf or chrome.manifest, once you know what you're looking for).
    Presumably I could also have done a per-user install, copied the folder from the profile, removed the extension, then pasted the copy into the program folder. That would save looking up the GUID but is only a little less fiddly.
    3b. After renaming the folder and restarting TB, it gives me a new tab "Install Add-on" which says "Another program on your computer would like to modify Thunderbird with the following add-on: ... Location: C:\Program Files (x86)". Once I allow the add-on, it is listed in Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions.ini.
    Aside: Disabling the add-on simply removes the line from extensions.ini, so how does TB distinguish between an unapproved add-on and a disabled one? It seems to be in extensions.json.

    Is Thunderbird already installed in the computers? If so, you could download the .xpi file and drag and drop it into the extensions window (after opening that) to install it in all the computers, following which you click the Install buttons when they become enabled, and you might have to restart Tbird afterwards.

    You could download and install RCDefaultApp 2.1 for all users: check the Read Me and then test it on something to see if it accomplishes what you want.

  • Changing file clicking default behaviour for all users

    Is there a way to change the default file clicking behaviour for all users? Each user can do it himself by going via the username menu ("Personal Preferences", "When clicking on a file...") but I would prefer to set it for all users to a value that is different from the default.

  • How to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users.

    Hi! I would like to know if there is any possibility to remove the option "Set as default background..." from the right-click menu on a picture, for all users. I know that's possible to edit userContent.css or userChrome.css, but this concerns only a profile at a time and being in a domain, I would like to set this for all people using Firefox.
    Can it be possible to edit a mozilla.cfg file to get the same result?
    Thank you in advance for help and tips.

    AFAIK then there is no way to do that system wide. You can only do that via userChrome.css or an extension like the Menu Editor per profile .You can install extensions globally, but the user will have to enable them anyway. That is not required for userChrome.css code.

  • Default Color, Size and Font for all user.

    Hi
    I have been looking around for the correct way to set some default styles for all Word users in a domain thrugh GPO. I just have some questions.
    So far i can only get it working if it set a "Workgroup templates path" under "User Configuration/Administrative Templates/Microsoft Office 2013/Shared paths". Then the users are able to select it when they say "New" - "Shared"
    and then the template
    But i would like it to be default for all users, like in the Normal.dotm. But without making a script to replace the file for every users APPDATA.
    Then i saw the "User Configuration/Administrative Templates/Microsoft Office 2013/Shared paths/Enterprise templates path", how and what does that do?

    Hi,
    As far as I know, if we want to distribute the Normal.dotm to users in a domain through GPO, we could
    use GPP file extension to
    distribute Normal.dotm to the path "C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates." for every user. For more detailed steps, please refer to the following link:

  • How can I set the default home page in Firefox 4 for all users that login to a PC on a Win 7 PC?

    I work at a community college in upstate NY.
    We use Firefox as the default browser at our institution and we have always set the default homepage to be our homepage for all users that login to the PC. We had a procedure to to that that worked with Windows XP and FF 3 or earlier
    We would do the following:
    1. go to: c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\FireFox\Profiles\<profile_name>\prefs.js
    2. Add the line: user_pref (“browser.startup.homepage”,”http://www.genesee.edu”);
    3. Copy the Folder
    C:\Documents & Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla
    To
    C:\Documents & Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla
    4. Restart the computer
    We're going to Win 7 and Firefox 4 and things seem to be different in terms of files and file structure. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Making customisation from the default profile is generally considered poor practice and quite often doesn't work out as planned. (If you're interested in some more information on this, [http://mockbox.net/windows-7/227-customise-windows-7-default-profile.html see here] see here)
    This article should help you with developing and deploying your customised Firefox 4 installation (without touching the Windows 7 default user profile):
