Kindly answer this brief question of mine.

In Windows 98, can the "My Documents" folder be placeon on top of My Computer icon or close to it in the Windows Explorer Folders View? I know that this is the case in Win2000 and it looks like it is more user-friendly 'cause the "My Documents" Folder is most often use by many Windows user.

Better yet put a shortcut for it on your Quick Launch Bar. I have Window Explorer and Control Panel there also. Make for very easy acess.

Kapatid,
If i understand your question you are asking if its possible to have My documents just above My computer in the left hand folder tree when you launch windows explorer.
Windows 2000 Windows ME Windows XP are setup like this by default. I cant remember if this is how 98 is setup. Is My Documents initially present in the tree without expanding C:\?

I dont think you can easily customize this tree.

If you would like to start explorer in my documents........
What you could do is create a desktop shortcut that will open My Documents with folder view enabled.

Heres the command for the new shortcut.

C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.exe /n,/e,/select,c:\My Documents

You could also skip this and just launch My Documents from the desktop Then hit the folder view button. Creating the new shortcut just removes a step in the process.
