Excuse me if this is an application question instead of an
OS question, but several MS programs pop-up an insert file
dailog box that includes a frame "Look In" shortcuts. How
do I add folders to these shortcuts?
 
Hi Terry,

Are you speaking of Common Dialogs? If so:

For Pro:

Go to Start/Run and type in: gpedit.msc then navigate to:

User Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/ Windows
Explorer/Common Open File Dialog/Items Displayed in Places Bar.

Choose Enabled then paste or type the link to the folders that you want
listed.

Or...

Add Folders to the "Save As" Dialog (Places Bar) Line 118

Or use TweakUI/Common Dialogs
