Hi Bob,
Thanks for the reply.
I knew that site already. My problem is that the location of custom places
is in fact a REG_BINARY value. I'm not aware of any way to change something
like "C:\Documents and Settings\" + @USERID + "\Favorites" into a binary
value that office might understand.
Any suggestions?
