Where is that documented?

But this no good for you because a user could have changed this and what about foreign languages....
I do not understand. If there's a defined default, I can always get that location from the registry, or somewhere. What "I;am asking is where is that default defined.

I do not see anything in the registry.

Powerpoint is the least Robust Object model of them all and off course it doesn't provide what you want it to...(A simple Options.DefaultFileLocation = "bla")
THe setting has to be saved somewhere, but powerpernt vba may just not let us have access, no pun intended, in the same that access 97 vba is braindead wth regard to vbproject objects.
