How Can I change the folder from "AutoCad R14" to the directory where all my drawings are located? Prsently the string looks something like this:
"Open A Drawing"
"More Files"
"Select File"
Folder=Autocad R14

I would like to change the folder to" C:\Sts Drawings (Where all my drawings are stored)
This would cut out two extra steps.

Thanks

I've had very little experience with R14 but I think its similar to 2000. In 2000 you go to Tools>Options>Files go to "Log File Location" and direct it to your C:\Sts Drawings folder. I hope this helps.
