save file function -- question

[shambhavi]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

When I save a file for the first time, Word only gives me the option to save in a limited number of folders -- not in any folder I wish. This is hugely annoying as I'm constantly having to save to the desktop and then manually move files into the correct folder.

Is there something wrong with my set up? Or Word?

Thanks.

Immediately to the right of the Save As filename box there's a button with a
down-pointing triangle - click it

If your problem is the same the same solution should work for you. If it
doesn't your problem is *not* the same even though it may seem similar.

If that's the case you need to post a NEW message rather than REPLYING to a
thread which is no longer active & the issue has been resolved. Without
details about your OS & Office versions, your Mac & the specifics pertinent
to your problem - including why the other solution isn't working for you -
there's little anyone can suggest. "Me too" is useless.
