Save Location

[shcr]

At work, we do a lot of emailing of excel files to one another. If you open
one via the email, the default save location is in a temporary files area.
This causes issues when folks don't know where to go to get them back.

I was unable to find information on changing that location. I'd rather have
the folks setup a default area in their My Documents area.

Anyone know how to change that setting? The Tools/Options just allows one
default based on creating a new file.

TIA

I think that this is more of an email client issue than excel.

We use Outlook 2k at work. I've never found a way to change this behavior.

But I have changed my behavior. Either I do File|SaveAs (within excel or word
or...) or I'll just rightclick on the attachment (while I'm still in the email)
and save it there (where I want it to be). Then I'll open that saved file in
excel.

I've changed my behavior as you, its all the others who ask to help find
their files later that I'm asking for.

I'll check in Outlook for a solution.

Thanks
