    Question Open/save dialog modification

    I do wonder, if it is possible to add custom paths there:



    I would like to have a link to Documents right up there. I looked inside of the comdlg32.dll and looking in ResHacker at the dialogs 1547 and 1552. It make me wonder, where the list of the paths come in. I wonder if the list of the devices or paths aren't the WS_SYSMENU and from that it might get striped down to WS_CHILD - witch are these things (okay, paths) that display in the end.
    I saw no way to modify that, tough. Perhaps someone enlighten me and direct me to the proper DLL to edit/change/tweak?

    PS: I find this by Google: http://www.liutilities.com/products/.../tweaks/10668/

    But I don't know it it works with the places disabled (TweakUI) on the requester. Maybe it should, but I don't know. Also I desperately missing an example how to specify EXACTLY the path. Perhaps something like:
    %USERPROFILE%\My Documents\
    Would be the best bet, but trying things like:
    <C:>
    or
    <D:\Documents>
    Does not work. Help?

    value "Path of the User Defined Folder" (Base Hexadecimal) without quotation in the text box
    Quotation is fine, but do these <> should stay?

    Found infos about registry modifications of the places bar are there: http://www.auxtools.com/placesbar.html

    Code:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\comdlg32\Placesbar]
    
    "Place0"=dword:00000011; My Computer
    "Place1"=dword:00000005; My Documents
    "Place2"="D:\Music"
    "Place3"="C:\Sites"
    "Place4"="C:\Temp"
    (for paths it is string (REG_SZ) and you must enter full path, of couse)



    Sadly, that is now what I want... any help?
