It's not the changing
It's not changing the registry keys, it's the number that have to be added ensuring that each is properly typed, capitalized, etc. As for using GPEDIT and the .ADM files, setting a value of 0 to allow all Word documents doesn't seem possible using that tool. And I gave up on adding the ability to open .CDR files using GPEDIT, it may be buried somewheres in there but life's too damn short.
