First, I don't speak ASP.Net, but...
I think Jim Rech suggested this:
Check to see where your "Recent" folder points to.
If it points at your desktop, that could be where windows/excel is storing the
shortcut.
Here's the link to Jim's post/thread.

Heck, here's his message:
====
Well it sounds as if your "Recent" folder and your "Desktop" folder have
merged. Everytime you open an Office document a shortcut goes to the Recent
Documents folder. On my machine running Windows XP those folders are listed
under this registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders
You might run Regedit.exe and look for something amiss. I think the Recent
entry should point to something like this: C:\Documents and
Settings\UserName\Recent. If it points to the same place as your Desktop
entry you have your answer.

Whenever my ASP.NET app creates an excel file and saves it a get a shortcut

I think the recent file is what is being created on the C drive. How can I
stop this? Can I change where the recent files for excel are saved off?
Thank You
