Off the top of my head, try something like

*User Configuration*, *Administrative Templates*, *Windows
Components,* *Windows
Explorer** | Hide these specified drives in My Computer*

Or other GPOs around that level

>> Hey guys -
>>
>>
>>
>> I have a Citrix server that is locked down pretty well. People can create
>> items on their desktop, which is fine but no where else. (if i create a
>> document in word, I get errors saying I cant open my documents folder, but I
>> CAN save it to the desktop without any problems) This is a school, and I
>> only want the students to be able to save to their desktop. It is easier for
>> me to see if they are doing something they shouldnt be.
>>
>>
>>
>> However, if they run Microsoft Access, it will not allow users to create a
>> database on the desktop. Does anyone know why?
>>
>>
>>
>> I know it is a GP, I just dont know which one. It tells me there is a
>> policy in effect disallowing that action.
