Hi Andy & George, I have found with Vista that when downloading what ever it will automatically save in to your download folder, which you will find under your name on the desktop.

Hi George - this is how it always was in XP, but my first encounter with downloading software in Vista, appears not to include the 'save' option, just run and cancel, but I'll look again later and see - Andy----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, March 17, 2008 8:27 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Vista and downloading | Hi Andy, | | You will have to look closer at each dialog. | | First, Run will download the file to a temporary folder, let | you install the software, and then delete the downloaded | file. Save will allow you to store a copy permanently. | | When you click Save, a dialog will come up with focus on the | name of the file. You will need to tab around this dialog | until you get to the Drive and Folder field where you can | then select the folder you wish to store the file in. | | George. | | -----Original Message----- | From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andy Collins | Sent: 16 March 2008 21:07 | To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | Subject: [access-uk] Vista and downloading | | Hi all - | | Anybody tell me where Vista puts downloaded software from | the internet?
