Hi All,

All I need is I need windows explorer to open a different folder, i.e. to open a directory created by me.. Is there any way to control this?

Thanx for any help.

Venkat :)

Hello,
Create a shortcut to Windows Explorer on the desktop. Right click the shortcut and open the properties.

Under Target text box, key in
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /n,/e,C:\lakshmi\
where "c:\lakshmi" is the desired directory you want the explorer to open to.

Hope it helps.
Lakshmi

Try using:

Shell "explorer C:\WINDOWS\"


whe4re C:\WINDOWS is whatever directory you want explorer to be open to.
