Moving "Documents" to another partition

Hi,

I've just bought an HP laptop with Vista on it (soon to become Win 7). The
hard drive has a "documents" section, just like Win XP's "My documents".
I've created a partition for data, and would like to put "documents" in
there. Of course, I can create a "documents" folder on the data partition,
but then there are two folders with the same name. I should explain that I'm
setting up the laptop for a member of my family who finds herself easily
confused by computers.

Thanks in advance for help.
