Default 'Save As' to same folder as original opened file

Here is the situation:

I am running Office 2010 on Windows 7. When I open a file (word, excel, etc.) off of my network drive, and then click 'Save As' to save a new (separate) version of it, I am directed to the default save directory (and sometimes a random temp folder) instead of the folder where I opened the original file. On my last computer (Windows XP) the Save As directory would always default to the location of the original file. Other users in my department with the same setup as me also do not have this problem. I tried an Office Repair, but that did not change this behavior.

This is starting to get annoying because the network drive has a deep hierarchy, and I am not always working in the same location (so it does not help to change the default save location in word or excel).

Has anyone ever experienced this or have any ideas on troubleshooting?



Many thanks!
