    Guys,

    How would I go about modifying the default shortcuts on the File Open and Save As dialogue boxes in office (2k3, WinXP). I'm refering to the thumbnail shortcuts that show as default down the left side of the dialogue, My Computer, Recent Docs etc.

    I would like to put custom folders in there instead, possible?

    I've googled but only found this so far, it doesn't do what I need and hasn't worked anyway !

    TIA,
    Bob


    EDIT :: Found it in the help section on the dialogue box itself! I'm not used to Windows Help helping.
