Question : MS Office Windows File Associations via command line

Hello guys;

I need to create a batch file that will help me associate all MS Word extensions with MS Office word.exe

.doc
.dochtml
.docm
.docx
.docxml
.dot
.dothtml
.rtf
.wbk
.dotm
.dotx

We have environment that dose not allow us to associate the files automatically so we have to do it manually and not via registry in other words it must be a batch file.

 Can someone drop me some examples (step by step) on how I can accomplish that ? Thanks

A better solution would be to manually add the PC to the domain (either way this will take a while over a VPN but as long as the DNS settings are right, it should work, I've done it myself before).

Then afterwards you can move the profile manually.  If this is a Windows XP client PC, there's a tried and tested way of doing this:

Failing that, a hardware VPN to VPN solution would work - this is how I did it.  This holds up a Lan to Lan tunnel between the two sites and the PC is therefore not involved in the connection.  Whether the SBS Connect Wizard would work over it is another matter.
