How can I disable the DocumentX! startup screen in VS.NET? I've tried everything I can think of, and it won't go away. Very irritating.

   I apologize for any inconvenience this problem has caused you.

  The startup screen can be turned off by unticking the "Show the Welcome page the next time Visual Studio is started" tick box
  at the bottom of the startup screen.

   If you have done this and are still seeing the startup screen then you will need to set the NoVSNETSplash reigstry value under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Innovasys\DocumentX5 key to "True". This value is created after Visual Studio (with the Document! X addin enabled) has been opened at least once.

  The tick box doesn't work at all, which is what prompted my original post.

  There is no Innovasys\DocumentX5 entry under HKCU\Software, but there is one under HKLM\Software. I tried creating the NoVSNETSplash value (there was not one there), to no avail. Any other ideas?
