Defaut location for file attachments?

Steve Gould · Jul 25, 2003

Word and Excel let you specify the default file locations for opens and
saves. Outlook doesn't have this option, it is always "My Documents". I
assume there is a registry key that says to use "My Documents". Can someone
point me at the correct reg key so I can specify a different path?

Thanks,

I don't know but it drives me crazy too! Hopefully, one of the MVPs will
help us out.

It takes a registry change, but there are a couple of tools to make it easy. See http://www.slipstick.com/config/attachfolder.htm. Note that the change will affect other Windows programs that use the My Documents folder.
