MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / June 2006Location of Data Sources
The default location for the Data Source in Word 2003 is in the My Documents \ My Data Sources. How can I change the default loction of the Data Sources to other path without promping me to key in the path location ? Thanks .... You can only change the data source folder to a sub folder of your My Documents folder. It is not possible to change it to any other folder. The data is held in the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\DataServices The best workarounds are to use the Places toolbar http://www.gmayor.com/customize_the_word_places_bar.htm or to put a shortcut to your data folder in the Data Sources folder.
