2007 setting system.mdw

Hi there,
upgrading computers to a clean Office 2007 install.

usually I set HKLM.../access/jet/engines to our local server "system.mdw".

Whilst this is possible to change the registry key whilst the users logged
in (HK Current User)..... this doesn't help me much.

Is there a method of setting a Default system.mdw which will be applied to
all users ?

Thanks Pieter, that may be an option - but I'm ideally looking for a 1 off
reg edit in HKEY Local machine that will allow me to do once and forget.
