Short version: Is there a registry setting for the "Ignore Other
Applications" setting?
Long version: Many people here have problems opening Excel files that are
remedied by:
1. Opening Excel, and clicking on 'Tools | Options... | General' tab.
2. Uncheck "Ignore Other Applications".
I also know this property can be set in Excel VBA:
Application.IgnoreRemoteRequests = False
However, there are a LOT of computers that seem to have this problem.
I figured that if this is being stored in a registry entry somewhere, I
can remotely connect to the user's registry, and set the value to false from
there, instead of having to run around to 100+ PC's, and repeat the processes
listed here.
Any ideas? Thanks!
