How to sync MS office documents across multiple folders?

Intellogist · 18 Apr 2013

Hi everyone!

A few months ago I got MS Office 2010 Professional Plus, and have been using it more and more the past week. I prefer MS Office over Google Drive because of its wider range of text options which can help me make more professional looking documents.

I am frequently on the go, so I have my files on my laptop (Vaio S Series) and a flash drive as well. Is MS Office able to save the document on both my flash drive and computer so that they are synced? I know that when I'm working on the file from my flash drive I won't be able to sync the file with the one on my laptop, but I hate having to save new documents on my flash drive over and over again.

Thanks!

im not aware of being able to save two copies of a file when saving an office file, however if you saved the original to your skydrive folder /subfolders that could save you the trouble of using the flash drive.

Hi Intellogist and welcome to Seven Forums..

Which program are you using within office? Or are you talking about All of them.

I mainly just use Word, but I would also like to know how to do it for all of the programs.

So basically when you saving a file you want it to go to multiple places?

Yeah, and when I save again it will update all of the copies of that file.

Ok well what you can do is use a program for this? Would that be useful for you? Or another option is create a marco within word, which I am gone very rusty on and can't remember to be honest.
