Excel: File from Microsoft Mail Saves to Current Folder

 * }

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Excel for the Macintosh, version 4.0

-

SUMMARY
If you close a file opened from Microsoft Mail (using the Open Mail command on the File menu) into Excel version 4.0, a dialog box appears asking to save changes in the worksheet. If the document was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Excel and you select Yes, you will be asked if you want the document saved in version 4.0 format. Selecting Yes then saves the file into the current folder with its current name.

MORE INFORMATION
In versions of Microsoft Excel prior to 4.0, when saving the changes in a file opened from Mail the Save As dialog box would display. This allowed the file to be saved into a specific folder, not just the current one. If the document that was opened from Microsoft Mail is a Microsoft Excel version 4.0 document, the Save As dialog box displays.

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
