Simple computer question

I want to move my shared documents folder to one of my other drives.
(documentsand settings\allusers\documents). Its fairly humongous, so I want to free up some space on my C drive.

I did read how to do it once, but I'm not sure where I read about it. The description was something that involved setting something to the new location. (pretty good memory huh?)

Anyway, if a kind FTE'r that's computer fluent could help, I'd appreciate it.

Are you talking about changing the target location of your My Documents Icon?

If so all you have to do is right click on the desktop Icon then select Find target then browse for the new location.. Then the default my documents location will be set to the other location.
