Does anyone out there know if there is a way to set the
default drive in Word (4.0) to an external drive.  I realize
that the File Manager handles volumes with a volume number
and not by specific drives, but I was just wondering if there
was a way to set the external drive to be the default with
some hack or in any of the Word preferences.  It would save
the students here in the computer lab who have accidentally
saved their work on the RAM disk from a lot of grief.

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.
