hi all
We are installing MarcEdit 7 via a custom image, distributing to staff (Windows 10) PCs and including a locally defined version of mebatch_db.xml (with default databases for searching by z39.50). We change the mebatch_db.xml in the MarcEdit 7\shadow\configs directory and this is retrieved into the user's application folder when they boot MarcEdit for the first time.

We want to set the user Downloads directory as the default directory for all users to download records when they are using z39.50 (from OCLC etc) - in previous versions of MarcEdit, we manually set up a file called download.mrc as the default name for any records downloaded. 
Can anyone advise if it is possible to include something in the default mebatch_db.xml so that all users will get their user Downloads directory as the default download directory?
I hope I've provided enough information, but if I need to clarify anything on my query, let me know!
Many thanks
Jenny
