This is a re-post from 11-22-06.

The original question was:
A while back, I put a shortcut to a file folder on the menu bar in Word 2003.
I can't remember how I did this? Could you maybe explain what I did please?

the name of the Places Bar, I took a chance.

Yes. I meant the main menu bar. However, continuing my search, I came across
an article that dealt with a similar problem and actually fixed the problem.
I found an article written by John McGhie on the MVP site, "Restoring
Customizations Saved in Normal".  I had recently lost the tool bars I
created. After reading his article, I followed his instructions and retrieved
my tool bars that included the shortcuts I am referring to.
***My original question is unanswered. The shortcuts open the folder in My
Documents in Windows Explorer that hold the files and folders  I frequently
use. Very handy!! I jsut can't remember how I accomplished creating the
shortcuts.***
Thank you,

The answer to Grahahm's question is, "The shortcuts open the folder in My
Documents in Windows Explorer that hold the files and folders?"

I would like to know what exactly I did to make this happen?
Thank you,
