I am using XP and trying to figure out how to add a destination when I right
click and open the "Send To" folder. For example: I would like to send a
document to my "G" drive which is an external hard drive. What steps do I
need to take to have the "G" drive show as a destination when I open "Send
To"? Thanks, Rick

Create a shortcut to G drive in Send To folder :
1) Open Send To Folder (Start > Run > SendTo)
2) Right click > Choose New - Shortcut
3) Type "G:\" in location box and press Enter.
4) Type the name of shortcut and click Finish



Good Luck, Ayush.
 
The "Send To" folder is a hidden folder in your profile directory
(Documents and Settings\Your UserName...) Use the Folder Options to
unhide the folder then just put the shortcuts that you want in the folder.

Thanks Ayush. I knew I missed a step somewhere.
