Herman,

Thanks for your reply.

What I mean by a shortcut is a Windows file system "shortcut", the
thing you get when you right-mouse-drag a folder and then choose
'Create Shortcuts here'.  It's a path to a folder, where the folder
itself resides elsewhere in the file tree.  To folks with a 'Nix
background, this is known as a symbolic link.

I am clear on the fact that additional (actual) folders can be created
in C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas and then seen in the chart tab.

What I would like is to create a shortcut in C:\Program
Files\AmiBroker\Formulas which links out to a folder hierarchy located
 completely outside of the AmiBroker tree, leaving the AmiBroker tree
for distro files.

My suggestion is meant to be in accord with the general idea that
multiple installs of AB (i.e. the last version, the next current
version, one or more beta versions) can exist and may need to be
backed up / restored, but this need not (in principle) involve the
Databases, or our custom AFL.

In short, I'd like to manage Databases and custom AFL outside the AB
file tree, but with AB accessing them as if then were right there.
