    Windows Tip - Customize My Documents
     
    With thanks to Gino for sharing this tip.

    You can easily customize the My Documents location to point to other folders by simply adding shortcuts.

    All you got to do is a right-click in the My Documents window and select New > Shortcut

    What's neat about this is that you can then access the shortcuts via the MicroStation Manager in V8.5. Very Nice!
