Dear Word Gurus,

When creating a mail merge in Word 2003, is there a way to change the
default folder from "My Data Sources" to another networked folder for all
future mail merge documents?

A previous post (some 3 years ago) said it could be done via editing the
Registry, but did not specify how. (I've had a look at regedit, but couldn't
locate anything that looked like the option required) ... any suggestions?

Cheers

It can only be moved with reference to the My Documents folder - the
mechanism is covered at
