Hi,
I need to know where the registry setting is stored for the default save
format for Access 2007, and how to make the default save format Access 2000

Thanks!
 
No need to hack the registry to set the default file format for A2007.

Click:
Office Button (top left)
Access Options (bottom of dialog)
Popular (first on left)
and set:
Default File Format
 
I need to know where is saves that setting in the registry though. I need to
know so I can set this programmatically from my C# application
 
Sorry: I don't know where the reg. setting is.
Perhaps someone else can contribute.

You can set it inside Access with SetOption on "Default File Format"
 
Hi,

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Access\Settings\
Key (reg_sz): Default Database Directory

To find such settings in the future use the Access interface to save a
known path. Then use regedit to search through the registry for the
known path.
