Modify Save Attachment Dialog Box

25th January 2008

In previous versions of MS Office, it was possible to modify your “save attachment as” dialog box with folders that you prefer, but in Office 2007, that option appeared to be gone thanks to this blog post I now know how to do it in the current version of Office.

All you have to do is browse to the folder you wish to add, then right-click in the blank area below your icons on the left, when “Add [Folder Name] will appear, and you can choose that option instantly adding it to your dialog box.

Since formatting my computer and reinstalling Office 2007, I’ve not been able to figure out this option, and been frustrated. I probably should have added it to my article, “things to hate about office 2007“.

By also right clicking and choosing “small icons” I can now more easily access my desired places to save things… Nice!
