Adding a Custom Save In Location

Does anyone know how to add a custom location/program to the Save-in list that is on the Save-As dialog from any application? For example do a SaveAs from your webbrowser, I want to add my application to the "Save In" list, which lists Desktop, all your drives, and network locations.

I am thinking this is an explorer extension that would receive either a temp file name or the bytes of the file, but I don't know where to start.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated. I would prefer to do be able to do this in VB6, but if it needs to be done in C or C++ we can deal with that.

Its a registry hack, only for Office I believe. We could test it out. Let me
find my keys for you. Be back.

Ok, here is the key to create.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Common\Open Find\Places\UserDefinedPlaces\Place0
With a string key of the folder you want to place in there.
Name them Place0, Place1, Place2, etc. I forgot how to get the
path to the folder in there. :blush: I also think I need to reboot in
order for the changes to take effect, but I can right now.

Thanks Rob, I started out trying that, but that wasn't what I was looking for. I found the a solution here:

It is a bunch of registry hacks that create a shell object that acts as a virtual folder in my computer.

Thanks for your help.

Cool link.

This is what I thought you were trying to do.
