(If the user clicks <b class="bterm">OK</b>, all of the services selected by the provider are registered on the client computer. However, some services may not be activated and may not appear in the <b class="bterm">Research</b> task pane. The user can also turn services on and off in the <b class="bterm">Research Options</b> dialog box to determine which services are available to search in the <b class="bterm">Research </b>task pane.)</li><li>The provider registers services on the client computer by writing registry settings that point to the provider and its services. These settings (under <b class="bterm">HKEY_CURRENT_USER</b>) register the services only for the current user. For detailed information about the registry keys created by registering a service, see "Sample Registry Settings" in <a href="rsAddingSetupRegistry.htm" id="HV01082280" lcid=" ">Deploying Services to Office Users</a>, <a href="rsregRegistryOverview.htm" id="HV01083005" lcid=" ">Registry Settings Overview</a>, <a href="rsregProviderSettings.htm" id="HV01083006" lcid=" ">Provider Registry Settings</a>, and <a href="rsregServiceSettings.htm" id="HV01083007" lcid=" ">Service Registry Settings</a>.</li></ol><p><b>Note</b> Administrators can and should incorporate research service installation into their deployment strategy for the company. For more information, see <a href="rsAddingSetupRegistry.htm" id="HV01082280" lcid=" ">Deploying Services to Office Users</a>.</p><p>When a service includes smart tag integration, the service provider incorporates a separate setup process, which appears within a search result in the <b class="bterm">Research</b> task pane when the user uses the newly installed service for the first time. For more information, see <a href="rsBuildingActionsWithSmartTags.htm" id="HV01082270" lcid=" ">Adding Actions to Query Results</a>.</p><p><b>Important</b> Although we talk about registering a research service, the normal registration process registers a research service <i>provider</i>, along with the research <i>service or services</i> that the provider chooses to register on the user's computer. While the provider (through logic in the <b class="bterm">Registration</b> method) can programmatically select which services to install, the user does not have an equivalent option in the <b class="bterm">Research</b> task pane user interface to select or exclude individual services at the time of registration. In some cases, the provider may choose to install services, but not to activate them, by setting their <b class="bterm">Display</b> setting to "Off." The user can activate or deactivate services at any time, from the <b class="bterm">Research Options</b> dialog box.</p><center><a href="XMLSchemaCopyright_HV01147162.htm">©2003-2004 Microsoft Corporation.
