When you are looking at the window for "My Documents," click on the folders tab so you can see the directory structure. The root directory is what is on your primary hard drive (usually "C:") and it will be found under the "My Computer" icon in the folders pane (although you may have to click on My Computer to expand the folders below it).
If you leave your data files in the subdirectory under Legacy (as is the default), you will also avoid the "My Documents" fiasco. And, if you have a very simple directory structure and not too many picture links, then using "test all multimedia paths" may work well for you. Personally, I don't want to have to reset hundreds of links to photos. cheers, Kirsty Haining Seattle, WA :-) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tish Sent: Monday, August 22, 2005 7:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] picture database What is a root directory?
