change default "My Documents" location?, XP-Home/multi-login

B

Bob

I have win XP Home, multiple user ID's set up.

Is there some way I can hack the default file open/save location
(which for most programs is "/Document and Settings/user/my
documents") to another location? Many programs lack the ability to
choose the file open and save locations and after running will default
back to the windows default. The hack could be per-user or per-machine
- either would work for me.

I don't store anything on the local machine and it would be much more
convenient to have it default to the network drive where I do store
things. Registry hacks are fine... whatever it takes.

Thanks,
