how to change the default directory?

[Alexander Baron]

Whenever I use Word it always defaults to the My Documents directory.
Does anyone know how I can change the setting so that it defaults to
the directory last used?

Thanks

Change the directory under Tools, Options, File Locations tab.

Note that this will change the "default directory" (which is what your
subject line requested) but this will not be the last one used. During a
Word session, Word does default to the last folder used, but when you shut
down and restart Word, it will revert to the folder assigned to Word
Documents on the File Locations tab of Tools | Options.
