Office 2008 Deployment

To set preferences in Excel 2008, on the Excel menu, click Preferences.

The following sections provide examples of the different types of preferences that you can set in Excel 2008.

Setting default storage locations

You can set the default location and search path for opening and saving Excel 2008 workbooks. For example, if your organization uses shared workbooks, you can specify the default file location in which the workbooks are saved. You also can specify the default folder that Excel uses to open workbooks at startup.

Note If the shared workbook preference is set to use a network file server and the user opens Excel 2008 before connecting to that server, Excel does not prompt the user to connect to the file server. Also, if the user is not connected to the network file server and tries to view the default file location setting under Preferences, no file location is displayed.

Set default storage locations

1.In the Excel Preferences dialog box, under Authoring, click General.

2.Next to the Preferred file location box, click Select.

3.In the Choose a Folder dialog box, click the name of the folder that you want to use as the default storage location.

Using add-ins

Add-ins created by using Microsoft Visual Basic do not work in Office 2008. However, if you want to retain the functionality of existing add-ins, you can convert them to a native Mac OS X scripting language such as AppleScript or Automator.

Configuring PowerPoint 2008 preferences

You can standardize the settings for PowerPoint 2008 in your organization by configuring preferences for the application and then deploying these preferences to users on the network. PowerPoint-specific preferences are stored in the com.microsoft.PowerPoint.plist file. This preference (.plist) file is stored in /Users/username/Library/Preferences.

Important

Use the same administrator account each time that you customize settings so that all preferences are stored in the same folder on the computer. This is especially important if you will be using Workgroup Manager to manage preferences later. Workgroup Manager uses the preference files that are located in the home folder of the administrator who is currently logged in.
