Just drag a shortcut to the appropriate My Documents folder (XP has more 
than one) onto the desktop, go into the shortcut properties, and set the 
hotkey from there.

Wouldn't it be much easier for him to use the keypad hotkeys to open 
folders and programs.  You can use every key there except the Numlock and 
Enter keys, which gives you 15 one-click hotkeys. The only catch is that 
you must have a shortcut on the desktop for this method to be effective.

See the tutorial on my website for further details of how to set this up or 
email me offline if you are not familiar with this one-touch method of 
opening programs and folders.  I use it all the time and should think it 
ideal for a blind person. The only problem might be committing to memory 
which key opens which program. It would be easy to physically modify each key.
