Changing the Location and Type of Saved Files

If you don’t like the locations where Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Access proposes to store your files, you can change those locations and create the organization that works best for you. And if you’re working with other people who require access to your files in a different version of Office, you can set the default format so that your files are in a format that’s fully compatible with earlier versions of these programs. If you consistently save your Word files in a format other than the Word 2007 format, you should modify the Compatibility settings on the Advanced tab of the Word Options dialog box so that your documents have the correct layout for the format in which you save them.
