How do I autosave Word attachments to a specific folder on my PC?

J

Jim Clay

I receive numerous "draft" documents for my attention and I would like to
have them placed into a "working folder" on my PC. Is there a way to
identify this so I need only save the document and it is automatically saved
in this working file?
