The My Documents folder is the default location for saving attachments in Outlook 2002. If you normally don’t save your attachments to this location, you can browse to the folder that you want them saved in. Alternatively, you can create a shortcut within the My Documents folder that points to the folder where you want attachments to be saved. So instead of browsing, all you have to do is double click the shortcut.

Open the My Documents folder on your computer (click Start and select My Documents). Right click anywhere within the folder, point to New and click Shortcut. Click Browse and locate the folder where you want attachments to be saved. Click Next. Type in a name for the shortcut and click Finish.

Now when you save an attachment in Outlook, click the shortcut you just created within the My Documents folder.
