she can create a folder like books off the root and in the section of  
prefs where it asks, type c:\books.

What Windows operating system is she using?  This will effect what  
the file location path in My Documents is.  In Windows 9X, it is  
(without the quotes) "c:\My Documents" .

In Windows XP, it will (without the quotes) be:     "c:\Documents and  
Settings\UserAccountName\My Documents"     where the User Account  
Name should be the name of the person, computer, group, etc. for whom  
things have been set up.  If we don't know the user name, we can find  
it by opening Windows Explorer, C, Documents And Settings; and it  
will be among the list of folders there.  It is expanded, as usual,  
with the right-arrow key.

   Subject: [VICUG-L] Looking For An Easier Way to Do Something in  
Open Book


   Hello All:

   I was talking with someone who wants to change the default location
   where documents are saved in Open Book.  Right now, she has the  
default
   which is:
   C:\openbk7\users\library.

   She'd like to change the default so documents are saved in "my
   Documents."  When we went into the General Settings under the  
settings
   menu of Open Book, I saw a place to change the default file location.
   However, it appears you need to know the full path to the folder you
   want to change it too.  So, what I'm asking, is there an easy way to
   grab the full path to the My Documents folder, capture it on the
   clipboard, then paste it into the default file location setting of  
Open
   Book?  This person also has JAWS as well.  I wish Open Book were like
   other applications that allow you to make changes like this and had a
   browse button so you could find the folder you want to use.

   Thanks,
