Default Excel saves to wrong folder

I can select the folder, and it appears to save the file, but when I go
looking, the file is in the first folder. Again, the key seems to be the
first "save as" location is sticking when I try the second "save as". I am
using Excel 2002 (10.6816.6817) SP3

When you do the second Save As are you saying that Excel will not allow you
to select another folder? Or are you saying that, even though you can
select another folder, Excel will not use it? I've have never run into
either problem (and I just tried it now with Excel 2002).
