Clicking on OPEN (in FP) takes me to MY DOCUMENTS

After I open FP, click on FILE, then click on OPEN, I am now seeing MY
DOCUMENTS instead of MY WEBSITES. Until a few days ago, clicking on
OPEN took me directly to MY WEBSITES. Now I have to search through MY
DOCUMENTS to find MY WEBSITES. Can someone advise me how to restore
this action to where it should be?
 
That is normal. Instead of clicking Open, click Open Web.. ( open Site in FP2003 ).
The default for Open is the directory that contains your web site.

I've had to move 'My Documents' to another drive because of space problems.
The 'Open Site' command now opens the 'My Webs' of the 'My Documents' on the
original drive and not the new drive - can this be changed? All other MS
programs recognize the move.
