    When I tried to set a hot key for a Word document, I was asked to enter the document path. How do I find this? Thanks.

    HI!
    Just right click the document and select Properties. Location is the path.
    Piece o' cake!
    :)

    Thanks. I did that. Maybe I should have been more specific. The document I want to put on the hot key is in the My Documents folder. When I open the document and click properties, I see the location and I copy that to the hot key box. But when I hit the hot key, it takes me to the My Documents folder, not to the specific document I wanted. My problem, I guess, is that the "location" shows only My Documents, nothing else.

    Note that when you see the location you may not see it all, so hi light it and copy it to notepad...or whatever you use.
    Then you must add another slash..\...and the actual document.
    The path for the document in the pic would read like this:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Doc1.doc
