command prompt default directory

[Robert Blackwell]

Is there a way to change the default directory of the command prompt?

Currently, when I go run>cmd..

it starts in c:\documents and settings\my username

Same with if I use the vs.net cmd prompt.

I'd like to change it to something more specific so when I go to the cmd
prompt, I don't have to navigate to a bunch of directories above, to find my
projects folder.

Thanks.

Robert,

create a shortcut to cmd.exe on the desktop and right-click -> properties.

Change the 'Start In' field to the location of your choice.
