File locations in WORD affect Outlook

[Jaybird]

When I set the file locations under the options menu for
WORD to something like d:\All Word Docs it works fine for
word. However, if I open Outlook, start a new message, and
click the insert file icon, it defaults to the d:\All Word
Docs folder. Why is a setting I am making in WORD
affecting the default open directory in Outlook?

because you are using Word as your email editor?

I am indeed using Word as my email editor, but not sure
why that would effect the default directory for
attachments (assumes word?). I tried unchecking this
option, and it did not change the behavior. Thanks for
the idea.
