I'm trying to determine whether a user (the one running the script, with or without run as) has certain user rights policies applied. Since secedit /analyze refers only to the actual setting and ignores privilege propagation by group membership, it is useless in this case.

I am programmatically generating an Office Open XML document (Word 2007 format), and would like to have all the fields updated when the document I generate is first opened in Word.
