How can you add an icon(shortcut)to the left side of a
dialog box, whether its Save As or Open dialog box?

Can anyone help?

Thanks
 
Hi Ron,

Using TweakUI, you can add your custom locations to the Places bar in Open/Save As dialog boxes

TweakUI v2.00 for Windows XP
http://download.microsoft.com/download/whistler/Install/2/WXP/EN-US/TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe

TweakUI v2.10 for Windows XP SP1
http://download.microsoft.com/downl...a6-b352-839afb2a2679/TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe

Open TweakUI, click Common Dialogs, Places Bar and add your items there.

-or-

You can also accomplish this using Group Policy editor in Windows XP Professional

1 Type Gpedit.msc in the RUN box.
2 User Configuration | User Configuration | Windows Components | Common Open File Dialog
3 Double-click 'Items displayed in Places Bar' and add the places in the text boxes
[See "Explain" tab for more information]

Note: All of teh above information applies only for Common Dialog boxes and not for Office applications.
