(rant) why microsoft is not easy to use

[Jason Symes]

Actually, there is a way to force word to look in specified folders and
save there, but its rather complicated. You'll have to go into thr program
files folder, find the folder where your copy of office has been installed,
then search for winword.exe. Once found, hit your context ment key or
shift-f10 and choose send to and desktop create shortcut and enter on ok.
Then go to the desktop and find the shortcut you just made and bring up a
context menu for that and choose properties. You should be put
automatically in the shortcut tab, but if not, just get there. Tab to the
start in field and change it to whatever path you want word to
automatically show you when your saving or opening and just hit ok, and you
should be good to go. hth
