It is a frustrating time-waster not to have a button for "My Documents" in your file dialogs. I recognize this is Windows-specific, but the ability to add user-defined paths to the column of filesystem targets in the left pane would probably be welcome on any platform.

Hi David,
you should be able to access the My Documents folder as the last entry in the folder combo box.

Hope this helps,
Alberto

Oh, I think I found what you mean.

(For anyone searching this thread in the future...) If I select My Computer in the left pane (which has My Computer, WebDAV, Secure WebDAV, FTP, and Project Files), I can eventually find My Documents by clicking the triangle next to "Look in:".

Rather a lot of scrolling and a tiny target, but it is better than navigating click-by-click all the way, so thanks. Still would be nice to be able to set up my own "favorites" or something like that.
