"Save as"- In Word 2003 how do I set a default folder?
When I pull up a Word Outlook attachment, file, save as.... it always saves
as to a folder I would never use. Can the default save as folder be changed???? |

In Word, click on Tools | Options | File Locations, and modify
the location of the "Documents" folder. Leon wrote: When I pull up a Word Outlook attachment, file, save as.... it always saves as to a folder I would never use. Can the default save as folder be changed???? |

Don't open attachments from emails in any email applications; it's always
recommended to right-click and Save as or Save Target as. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Leon" wrote in message ...

I did that. So, when I have a NEW doc it starts out in "x" folder. Good.
But when I am in Outlook, and "Save As" on a document, it starts the save out in some obscure location, so that I have to go almost to the desk top and start over. Overkill. Any ideas g-n-o???? leon "garfield-n-odie" wrote: In Word, click on Tools | Options | File Locations, and modify the location of the "Documents" folder.

AT: You are a life saver! I took part of what you said, and part of another
guru, and this is what happened: Let the "Save As" from Outlook take me to "My Doc" folder. From that screen I click the "Desktop" icon on the left, which visible brings up a shortcut to the folder I want. It's only 2 or 3 steps, but it sure is a lot better than what I was doing before. Kudos to AT and company!!!
