Change the My Documents address to drive letter

Locked

Hi Everyone

Looking for a bit of help.

Background – Flash CS3 installed on XP, Server 2003 domain. N:\ is the users drive (Hidden share \\servername\username$)

Flash Actionscript is very temperamental as to whether you go to My Documents in the start menu to open the original flash file or you go to My Computer then N:\path.

If you go to My Documents and then go down levels you get \\server\username$\path BUT if you go to My Computer then N:\ it stays as N:\ as you navigate.

The flash file will not publish if it is opened from the share, but will if it is opened from the N:\. I guess this is to do with flash not supporting networks.

Is there any way in which we can control the path that shows? For instance instead of \\server\user$ it shows N:\

Thanks for your help

Tom

What makes you think you can?

After all, you said it yourself: [i]I guess this is to do with flash not supporting networks.[/i]

If it doesn’t support networks, it doesn’t support networks and there’s probably nothing you can do about it.

But, have you ‘properly’ moved My Documents? You didn’t tell us that.
