Managing Office 2007 with Group Policy
--
Office 2007 provides some great new ways to be managed via group policy. Here is what you have to do to utilize those.
Microsoft has provided a great deal of additional capabilities when managing Office 2007 with group policy. However, you will not be able to manage these by default without first installing the proper ADM/ADMX templates.
You can download these templates from Microsoft, here (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=92D8519A-E143-4AEE-8F7A-E4BBAEBA13E7&displaylang=en)
Once downloaded, install the ADM files by opening the group policy editor, right clicking the administrative templates node, selecting Add/Remove Templates, and browsing to the downloaded templates for your language. Alternatively, you can install the ADMX files (when utilizing Windows Server 2008) to your central store within the SYSVOL folder.
