Guest Smiley_rc Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 I have an easy question. When I open a program then I go to open a file how do I change the file that pops up? For example I will open the Excell program. After I open the program I need to open a file so I go to open a file and when that window pops up I have to open documents and settings then I have to open a file that I call Misc. Info, then I have to open a file that is called excell spread sheets and then I can open the file that I need. Is there a way that I can skip all that and have that open file window automatically open up in the excell spread sheets file?

It's going to be different based on the application, but for Excel go to Tools - Options, then the General tab, and set the value for default file location.
