How do I change the default file location in Word (or Excel, Access, etc.)?
In Word, go to Tools on the menu bar, then Options, then File Locations. Click the first entry – Documents – then click Modify. Use Look In to find the drive and folder you prefer. This is usually L\docs. The process is very similar for all Microsoft applications. For future software rollouts to the entire network, we plan to standardize this and set the default location for you.
