I know that by default, when you go to FILE / OPEN /
it goes to My Documents.
How do I get Excel to open up to a different folder by default?

Thanks

Hi Andy

the settings can be changed under tools / options and on the General tab.

Hi Andy,
same as Julie said,
Tools, Options, General, Default File location
i.e. C:\h\excel2k

but be
careful that you do not use the alternated startup
directory field for this, all file there will be opened
up just like your XLSTART directory.t

thanks for the feedback :)

Thanks to both of you! That worked great!
I knew there was a way, just couldn't remember where to look.
