Default Moving ("Send To" button) documents from Desktop to My Documents

I just changed from Word 98 to Word 2007 (not happy!) - Sometimes I create a
new Word document and it (for some unknown reason) ends up on Desktop. When I
right-click and then select Send To the box with 3 choices opens - and no
matter what choice I choose, nothing happens. In Word 98 the document would
immediately disappear from the Desktop and then appear in My Documents -
which is all I'm asking - is that asking too much from Word 2007??? Thanks!

You seem to think that you're not responsible for where documents are
saved; while Word has a default location, it is always up to the user
to determine the Filename, Save Location, and Document Type.
Also, the Send To command is a Windows command and has nothing to do
with Word (except that Word may have the document open). Did you
change Windows versions too?

The Send To command will copy the document in Vista. But, it might be
smarter to work on getting the documents into the appropriate folder
when saving from Word instead of having to clean up later on.
