The other option is to use VSTO and build a component that will force the information (maybe fetching it from a web service remotely so you don't hard code information in the VSTO addin). You'll need the VSTO runtime on your client machines for this to work, but it's much cleaner than macros or scripts.

Fernando, I would like to see an alternative method to VBA. The user could choose the "Disable Macros" option and this too would fail. Are there any other sugguestions / solutions for this? Also, how do you "tell" office apps that they should save the currently opened file to a different library with out prompting for location?
Thanks for the suggestion Fernando,
Jared
