When I send an email with an attachment (Office 2K)it always defaults to looking for the file I want to attach in the My Documents folder. How do I change this default to something else? (I am using Word as my email editor) If I go to Tools, Options (within the email message) it shows the same defaults as I have set up in Word. Any help is greatly appreciated.

If you are using Windows 2000 you should be able to right click My Documents on the Desktop. Choose Properties. On the Target tab, you should see the Target location and a button that says Move. Click Move and you will be given Browse for Folder. Select the drive and folder you want to be your default for My Documents (or create a new folder on a drive by using the New Folder button). When you click OK, you will be taken back to the Target tab and when you click OK or Apply you will be given a dialog box asking if you would like to move all of the documents in your old location to the new location. Click the appropriate choice for your computer.
