Can GLOBAL.MPT location be changed?   

I have macros that I don't want associated with the .mpp file, so I put them 
in GLOBAL.MPT.  I work in an environment where I may be on one of a few 
different computers, and I would like those macros to be available on each 
one.  It seems like it would be best to have a single copy pointed to by all 
the systems.  We have a network drive that gets mounted no matter where we 
log in, is there a way to point to a GLOBAL.MPT there?
