Is there a way to set the default save location to a specific folder for certain programs? Some tweak to the registry maybe? For example, I use Open Office quite frequently to design templates for my workplace, and I need to save them to a networked folder- but every time I click save it defaults to the local My Documents folder. I tried Googling this for a while and didn't find anything helpful so any pointers on this would be nice. Thanks. "Equations are the Devil's sentences." -Stephen Colbert

This is program dependant. From what i found on the web, in Open Office: Go to 'Tools - Options - OpenOffice - Paths - MyDocuments' and select 'Edit' to insert the path of your choice. Jerry

That worked, thanks. I will assume then that most programs will function similarly? How about email attachments? I've run through the options in Outlook (I have 2007) and I don't see anywhere that I can set the Default Save Location...Coleness "ID10T Error: Please see your network administrator because you are probably ruining something."
