DefaultDir$(0) Does Not Return DOC-PATH Directory |
Q109090
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
- Microsoft Word for Windows NT, version 6.0
SYMPTOMS
The DefaultDir$(0) function may or may not return the DOC-PATH directory.
To display the DOC-PATH directory, choose Options from the Tools menu and select the File Locations tab. The DOC-PATH is the directory listed under Location for the Document File Type.
CAUSE
By design, the DefaultDir$(0) function returns the current default directory, which you can change by selecting a different directory in the File Open dialog box. As a result, if you have not changed the default directory since you started the current Word session, DefaultDir$(0) returns the DOC-PATH directory. On the other hand, if you change the default directory, DefaultDir$(0) returns the current default directory instead of the DOC-PATH directory.
MORE INFORMATION
This functionality is not clearly defined in online help or in the "Microsoft Word Developer's Kit."
