When I do 

Export["picture.pdf", pict]

the file picture.pdf ends up in the directory

C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\4.0

I can see how to alter this by putting the full name of the file in the
notebook,    The "Get File Path" even makes this somewhat easy.

But is there a settable Option or Preference governing the interpretation of
"filename" in Export[filename,data]?

In particular, I would like to be able to tell it to put the file in the
Directory that the notebook came from.

Doe Microsoft Windows have a notion of current directory?
