The book won't help you, trial and error will. Test it accordingly. There
are many other measures other than that section of My Computer to add
folders. Again, it takes trial and error, be creative.

Nice try. Thank you, but...
I have created a string, but obviously this works only
when there is a certain user name to associate the folder
with(maybe).
///What I want to do is to put simple folder's shortcut
(for example C:\WHATEVER FOLDER\) right next to My
Documents folder icon IN My Computer's "Files Stored On
This Computer" group.///
Any other suggestions???
P.S. I have a more than thousand pages book on WinXP and I
can't seem to find a way to do this (I wonder if it's
possible in the first place)
