Don't know if you ever solved this, but my workaround for this type of thing is to
create a shortcut for explorer.exe with a target line such as this:
TARGET: %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, E:\My Documents\Network Docs & Files
This will open an explorer window showing the Network Docs & Files folder in single-pane
view.
Using "/n" after the explorer in the target line will open explorer in a 'My Computer
style' single-pane window, using "/e" will open it in the double-pane "folder view".
By changing the path you can open virtually any location as a starting point.
You can also specify the minimized, maximized, or normal window views in the shortcut
mode line.
You can also drag these shortcuts to your 'Links' bar and have a whole set of your
most commonly used targets... Then change the icons... Collect 'em, Trade 'em...
Happy Clicking...
