It normally puts them in the system temp folder Something along the lines of documents and settings\current user name\local settings\temp I believe you can change the location in control panel>system>advanced>environment variables (at your own risk of course) Cheers TAJ Simmons microsoft powerpoint mvp awesome - powerpoint backgrounds http://www.powerpointbackgrounds.com Upvote 0 Downvote
