Excel needs BROWSE in tools-options-general-default file location

[Guest]

Changing data file location in Word is easy, just browse in a GUI environment.

Changing data file locations in Word is like being in the "dark" ages.
We must KEY the full path name. (or may be able to paste).

Excel needs a GUI BROWSE option to enter default file location. . .

How about copying the new sheet to one with the permanent sheetname.

You can probably record a macro using edit, move or copy sheet, copy sheet.

Sub Macro14()
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("permanent sheet").Delete
On Error GoTo 0
' ---Sheets("Summary").Copy before:=Sheets(1)
ActiveSheet.Copy before:=Sheets(1)
ActiveSheet.Name = "Permanent sheet"
ActiveWorkbook.Save
End Sub

sorry replied to the wrong question.

But I do kind of wonder why the poster needs a GUI file
interface for a permanent setting -- tools, options, General,
Default file location. Seems to me something that would
only be useful under File, Save As and you will find it there.
