How to configure the Microsoft Office Settings element.
This element provides the ability to centrally configure default file locations for Microsoft Office.
By centrally configuring the paths used by Microsoft Office, it is ensured that user-created documents are stored to network servers rather than locally on the user’s computer. This enables documents to be secured, backed up nightly, and made available to the user regardless of which computer the user logs on from.
Application/suite
Select an application including the version from the list.
Option
Select an option from the list. The content of the list varies based on the Application/Suite chosen.
Path
Specify a path that the selected option should be redirected to. The path may be in the form of a path, mapped drive, or UNC. Click on the binoculars to navigate to the path. Optionally, press the F2 key to use a Desktop Authority dynamic variable.
Validation Logic

Description
