Outlook file attachments

[Guest]

Can I det a standard directory that Outlook points to when I indicate that I
want to attach a file? I normally attach Word documents and I would like to
have that directory set as a default.

Outlook always defaults to whichever directory is the "My Documents"
directory.

Okay, but there is a "My Documents" directory under "all Users", "Default
User" and "owner". I would like to have it point the the directory under
"All Users". Is this possible?

Default configuration would be the one under your userid (in this case
"owner"). I've never tried reconfiguring my user profile under Windows
2000/XP to redirect the "My Documents" folder to the "All Users" area. I
tend to create a new root folder on my C: drive (e.g. C:\DATA) for such
things. This way I know exactly what folder to backup when it comes time to
move on to a new PC or redo the one I'm sitting at.

To change the "My Documents" folder, just right click on the icon and select
properties. Pick the Move button to move the special folder to wherever
makes sense to you.

Why would you want all users of your PC to access your documents?
