My Documents bugs me

I would like to have the open file dialog box default to the folder of my choice as opposed to Windows choice of “My Documents”. How do I do this? Please something more than edit the registry.

you can right click on My Documents, choose Find Target to change its default, also you can rename the folder with the right click

Here is my simple solution:

- Run Winword
- Click menu "Tools"->"Options"
- When Options dialog open, click "File Locations" tab
- Now you can change your default doc location to whatever doc folder you want.
