You cant I'm afraid. Microsoft doesnt allow this - as its embedded into the program itself. 

 

You can manually work on files inside of Dropbox and hit save on them frequently to save to Dropbox (how I do it), however.

In Word, go to File, Options, Save and check the box for Save to Computer by default. Then set the Default local file location to the folder where you wish to saved files by default.

Need more support?
