After opening a Word document from an .html page, how can I force the Word "SaveAs" function to save to a specific location (vs c:\windows\temp)?

This is not possible and is a possible security risk. Browsers wont
allow you to force users to save the file at a specific location. e.g.
You could then save the file in startup folder, where it would run on
next startup. or the cron folder in linux.
