txt :: Places in the "Open File Dialog"

To add places (fast access icons on the left) to the "Open File Dialog" go to the path below in the registry (use "regedit" command):
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
\CurrentVersion\Policies\Comdlg32\Placesbar]

The last two keys (Comdlg32\Placesbar) are not there so you'll need to create them.

Once you're in the "Placesbar" key you can add values.

Naming convention is (and no, you can't put kitty0, kitty1... only Place0):

Place0
Place1
...

You can either create a String or DWORD value. Strings allow you to put any path you want (even network path) and for DWORD (it's supposed to be hexidecimal [that's what it is by default]) use the values below to put some predefined folders.

0 - Desktop
1 - IE
2 - Programs
3 - Control Panel
4 - Printers & Faxes
5 - My Documents
6 - Favorites
7 - Startup
8 - My Recent Documents
9 - SendTo
10 - Desktop (folder)
11 - My Computer
12 - My Network Places
13 - NetHood
14 - Fonts
15 - Templates
16 - Start Menu

Have fun,
