Our network login code resets the default file locations for microsoft applications to a central folder which is read only. This means that I can't export Access reports to Word or Excel because Access is trying to save the report to a read only location.
Is there a code I can attach to either the report or start up routine that will amend the default file location for Access from F:\ to H:\ ? Or even specify where the report should save before being displayed in Word or Excel?
