Options | File Locations tab
When I look at the File Locations tab in Word 2000, the full
paths for the AutoRecover file and the Startup folder aren't visible because they're rather long and the options dialog box apparently can't be enlarged. Is there any way to see the complete paths? I read somewhere that it could be done by clicking on the Modify button, but that doesn't work for me, because it merely produces a Browse for Folder dialog box in which My Computer is selected. This isn't that big of a deal, since I know where the startup file is, and I've never had a reason to find the AutoRecover file. Still, it seems strange that it would impossible to read these paths, so I'm wondering how it's done. Thanks. -- Bob Stringer |

In the dialog that appears when you do click on Modify, if you use the
pulldown at the top of the dialog, it shold expand to show you the path. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

When I tried it, there was no pull down, but given your response I figured out what was going on. I use a utility that adds various features to dialog boxes. I disabled it just now, and then went to the File Locations tab and click modify. This time the dialog was opened to the folder in question (instead of My Computer) and it had a pull down. Thanks for your help. -- Bob Stringer |
