I suppose easy is a relative term. Run the command 'shell:sendto' to open
the folder, and rightclick it to create a new shortcut. That's the point
where it can get technical. Let's say I have a script that takes a file as
an argument. I could create a command in the shortcut to run the script, and
use the file sent to it as the argument, like this:

c:\myscript.vbs %1

Obviously, the syntax of the executable determines the command structure. A
folder path will cause the file to be copied to it by default, because that
is the default syntax of a folder command. Likewise Notepad, or Word have
built in default syntax of command to handle the file 'sent to' them.

Several directories ... i.e. c:\work\excel

I would like to right mouse click on the file and send that file to the
directory listed in the send to list.

It's interest. I did a search for send to from the "C" drive and it could
not find it. I have everything turned on and admin perms. Oh well. Thanks.
Your suggestion helped!

Then the "Copy To" & "Move To" might help...
