Hi all.

Got an odd problem with Excel remembering folder path location during the File Save As dialogue prompt.

If I open Excel 2010, then File...Save As to Documents/Child Folder and click save. The file is saved in Child Folder as Book1.xlsx. If I then click File...Save As again, the Browse window appears. The window is showing the contents of Child Folder which is what I'd expect.

This time however, I'll save it to a mapped network drive. After saving, I click on File...Save As and get the Browse window again. However instead of starting in the location I saved the file, the Browse window has opened in my default Excel save location, which is C:/Users/bengrah/Documents.

The drive itself is a WebDAV drive. Does anyone know why this is happening, or could possibly provide a fix?

Thanks,
bengrah.
