In a document created in MS office applications, if you go to File/Properties and choose the Summary tab you see entries for such things as name and company of the file author. Where are the default values for these entries stored? If you change it for a given document, it does not change it on subsequent documents. I have tried changing, for instance, the normal.dot file's properties but on a new document it still shows the previous values.

Our company has changed names and upper management wants this modified for all of the users :rolleyes: , but mostly for them. I am starting to believe it is a registry entry, but I'm not positive.

Thanks for any help.
 
In word 2003, choose tools -> options. Click on the User Information tab.
Change information.
In excel 2003, choose tools -> options. Click on the General tab.
Change information.

I would think it would be in similar places for previous versions of the office products.
