Move default Save As folder to Dropbox

I know how to move my Documents folder, but what I want is that when I click on any application to bring up an attach file (or Save As) dialog (like when I'm adding an attachment to an Outlook email message), instead of it defaulting to the Documents folder,
I want it instead to default to a Dropbox folder--to save me the many steps from having to navigate away from the Documents folder (where nothing is stored) to a Dropbox folder where I store everything.

How can I change the target of the "attach file" and "Save As" locations so I don't have to continually navigate through a thicket of file tree structures?

 

Saving a file to a folder

Hello,

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm opening up an attachment from a google account. When I right click I don't have the 'save as' option also I did not have that option when I checked the 'file' either...

Please advise.

Thank you,
