I have a question about Get
Find/Search to Look Where You Want:
I have been trying unsuccessfully to make the suggested REGEDIT listed as Solution#1
work on an XP Pro installation. Anybody had any success with this?
Solution#1 Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE). Open HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ Directory\
shell\ find\ ddeexec. Double-click on (Default), and replace the value with "[FindFolder("C:\",
C:\)]" (or whatever directory you wish).
This should cause the Search Location to default to a drive of my choosing, but
each time I have tried it, I still get all the drives on the machine listed instead
of the drive I want.
TIA,
Jim.
