One of our users always gets word files emailed to her...when she opens up the file she'd like to click file/save as and have her network folder automatically appear there. Instead...when she goes to file/save as she gets s:\tempfiles (drive s: is her mapped drive). Where do I go to change that?? The user documents file path in word is already set to s:\...I can't figure out why it's always defaulting to s:\tempfiles when opening up documents from email attachments.
 
is this user a mendatory user , or it's juts a user has it's permanent profile ?

nope it's a network account but using a local profile...no policies set up on it. I think I found the solution...changed a registry key that said outlooksecurepath or something like that to her network folder. Not sure exactly what that does, think it's just the path that it sends files when you click to open them.
