Default Set file location defaults

Using Publisher 2007

Where can I set the file location defaults? There is no Office Button and I
cannot seem to find anything under Tools/Customize or Tools/Options. Cannot
seem to find anything anywhere that would allow me to set the default file
locations for Publisher 2007.

There isn't this option in 2007. If you are using Windows XP create a folder in
*My Places*. It will be an extra click. In Vista you can create a folder in My
Documents and added it to *Favorite Links.*

We are on a network and were hoping to point to the correct drive mapping
as a default location in Publisher 2007. Anyone else confused as to why the
developers didn't provide a "default location" option with Publisher
2007?????????

IMO due to a major brain fart.

Pub doesn't work well on network...be careful.

Thanks for the network warning. Office 2007 is installed on each
individual workstation. We'll just be storing the files on the network
server.

You should really consider an arrangement where files are opened from
and saved to the local disk, and then synchronised with the server
post-facto.
