Actually, I think it is the program that "remembers" the last used directory, not XP. When I use Notepad to open a previous file in a particular directory, it will Save it in that same directory. Save As.. behaves the same way. Wordpad behaves the same way for me. When you open the apps first, and create a new document, the apps use the directory where you last saved a previous file. That seems rather convenient, for me. EV> I don't want it "there" so I have to change where XP wants EV> it to go, to where I want it to go. Easy, use Save As.., then you have the option to put it somewhere else. EV> Lots of times I forget to look where my newly written file EV> will be Saved To, and later have to look around the recent EV> Sub-Directories I have remembered using recently to find EV> that File. Easy, use the My Recent Documents.. option in the Start menu. As you hover over each document in the list, you will see a bubble pop-up that reveals the location. EV> Is there any Setting I could change to get XP to quit EV> Remembering recently used Sub-Directories? Save As.. seems to be your best bet. Then you can "put" the document wherever you want. -- Quoted with Reformator/Quoter.
