Why does "save as" automatically start in *the last folder saved into* rather than the folder where the currently-open file resides? I've accidentally saved files in the wrong folder several times. I'd much prefer "save as" to start where the current file is and navigate from there if I want to save into a different folder.

Is there a setting I'm missing that could change this? I'm using version 5.3 on a WinXP computer.
I believe that is a Windows default action.
There may be a way to have a 'Default Save As folder' preference.
