I use templates through ACT and every time I open any template, I make the
necessary changes. When I go to save the document it automaticcally goes to
specific folder.

How do I change this to a different default folder?

Hi Mike,

You're not supposed to modify templates (except when the base
information needs to be changed). You're supposed to use the File >
New command to create a document based on the template, which leaves
the template itself unchanged. You make your changes in the document
and save that separately.

Word automatically goes to the User Templates folder to save
templates, and to the Documents folder to save documents, according to
the locations set for them in Tools > Options > File Locations.
