Anyone know where I would go.......exactly......so that when I add an attachment to my email .........it will start looking in a certain folder by default. I send 99% of my attachments from J:\lus\tfland\word but when I go to insert an attachment it opens in c:\whatever. Where do I go to change this? The registry I am thinking?

If you open up Word and then Tools...Options...File Locations and change the option for the location of Documents. Only problem would be that when you do this it will change the default location when you open up Word as well. But it works...

I already am saving my word file in this location. But when you open attach, it still opens in a different location.

I got the same thing you mentioned to happen when I turned off using Word to edit my email addresses. Before, I used Word to edit email messages and that is when I could change the default location for adding attachments to whatever it was in Word. Don't know if you want to use it this way or not, but it looks like one way that it would work for you.
