Default Check-Out Location

To set the default check-out location:

  1. In the User Settings dialog box, next to Default Check-Out Location, click the lookup button.

  2. The Browse For Folder dialog box appears. Select the default location to check out documents and then click OK.

    When the default check-out location is specified, and you check out a document, the Copy to: field is populated with this location on the Check-Out dialog box.

  3. If you want to check out a document to a different location, click the lookup button (...) to specify a different location.

    Once the check-out operation completes, the path is stored in the database, which is used when a document is checked in. If the file is not present at the checked-out location, an Open dialog box appears, where you can locate the document.
