Cheat: Complete Control
This will add hours of fun to the game:

1. Begin a game.

2. Save the game - remember the name.

3. Exit HOI

4. Find the Hearts of Iron directory - under scenarios/save games.

5. Find the name of the game with the .eug extension - open it in wordpad.

6. If playing:

USA - search for 'tag = USA'

Germany - search for 'tag = GER'

France - search for 'tag = FRA'

England - search for 'tag = ENG'

7. Either scroll down, or then search for 'research_cost_app'

8. The next 4 lines will decide how long research takes. 1.000 is normal - lowering it to 0.250 will make it really fast. Do not go lower than this, as an error may occur as technologies are discovered.
Note - looking through this section and making minor tweaks can change the entire landscape of the game. Also, scrolling down further, you will find generals. Decreasing the Rank = number will promote them - a zero (0) is Field Marshall/Grand Admiral etc. Increasing the skill will make them better - try not to go too high, as I do not know the limit of the game's logic algorithms.

If you make any mistakes - simply go back to step one. This does nothing to change the game itself, only your saved game.
