| Guest | Re: Shared Folder by Multiple Users in VISTA? Most programs allow you to set the default path for saving files. Check the Options or Preferences for the program. ------- *Report back, please* "rmi08" <rmi08@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:C34214A6-B7BD-4A29-B2DF-66B49DB595F8@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Shared Folder by Multiple Users in VISTA? You might be able to change your documents folder to the public folder. I made my downloads folder the public downloads folder, but I have not tried this with the documents folder. Right click Documents, select properties. Select the location tab. Select the Move.. button and make your changes. "rmi08" <rmi08@xxxxxx> wrote in message news 5523B4F-3864-417E-980D-0C7DFACA25C3@xxxxxx
