Hi Sharon,
In Windows XP, WordPad saves just like Notepad,
however, in Windows 7 it does not, so you must select the location each 
time.
Apparently WordPad follows the same rules as Office.
If you wish to create a new document in a specific folder, while in that 
folder,
go to the file menu, and then enter on New, and review your choices.
HTH,
Rick Justice

Tomorrow's another day, another way!
and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved!

How can I change the default folder for Wordpad?  Notepad always goes to
last visited folder but Wordpad always goes to Documents and I would like it
to go to the Dropbox folder.
Thanks,
Sherrie

Yes, word, outlook, excell and all MS Office applications.
If you save a document and change the default folder for that document in a
particular application then that folder remains open until you close that
application.  Once that application is reopened then it will revert back to
the original default folder.  The only way to change the default folder
permanantly for saving is to go to tools and options and change it there.

Hi Denny,
Which application are we talking about?
Is it Microsoft Office?

Rick,

    It only remains the default so long as you keep that application open.
Once the application is closed and then reopened, it reverts back to the
original default location.

Hi Jorge,
In most, if not all Microsoft applications when you perform a "save as",
you have an option in that dialogue to browse for a location to save your
document.
Once you have selected a location, that usually becomes the default.
So the next time you save something in the same application,it will be in
the last location you saved something to.
It is for this reason that I save everything to one location, and then move
it later .
HTH,
Rick Justice

Hi,

I noticed in this Wind 7 laptop, when I create a new doc or save an
attachment, it looks like it's being saved to the library and not my
Documents.



Can anyone guide me in changing the destination.



Thanks in advance,



                                                                Jorge
