Cannot find Default Database Directory in Options under View due to moved.
Cause:
The 'Options...' command has been moved to the 'Tools' menu, and the 'Default Database Directory' option has been renamed 'Default Database Folder' and moved to the 'General' tab.
Solution:
To set the default folder for new databases in Access, use the 'Options...' command under the 'Tools' menu, and type a folder in the 'Default Database Folder' box of the 'General' tab.
1) Select the 'Tools' menu and select 'Options...'. (The Options dialog box appears.)
2) Click the 'General' tab.
3) Type a folder name in the 'Default Database Folder' box.
NOTE: The folder typed will be the default for all new databases opened.
Type folder
4) Click 'OK'. (The Options dialog box closes.)
