Hey all,
I have a working wine instalation configured with the Sidenet wine config. utility and running IE and Office 2000.
The only annoyance is that the "My Documents" folder on the windows c drive is different than my home folder... so everytime I save something, I have to copy it from the windows folder to my Linux home folder. Is there any way to change it so that the default My Documents folder is a drive itself which I can link to my Linux home folder?
For example, I create a link as drive "F:" to my home folder, so how do I change it so that the My Documents is not C:\My documents or c:\windows\profiles\(user)\My documents, but F:\ instead. (I suppose this is more of a windows question than a linux one).
Agh... that didn't work. Microsoft word doesn't see the folder and defaults to the "C" drive. Is there a way to change something in the registry to make the "My Documents" folder the "F:/" drive?
