Changing the default directory
Every time I launch Word and open a file I am presented with My Documents on
the C Drive. I put all my applications on the C drive and my working files on the D Drive. How do I change the default to D Drive? |

Changing the default directory
In Word 2003 or earlier, click on Tools | Options | File Locations tab,
and modify the location for Documents to d:\ or d:\foldername. In Word 2007, click on Office Button | Word Options | Advanced, scroll down to the bottom, click on File Locations, and modify the location for Documents to d:\ or d:\foldername.

Changing the default directory
Thanks. I have Office3 2007 and it worked. I did the same for Excel and it
worked to. Funy how I have been working around this for 12 months and the solution was so simple.
