The placesbar changes from your newsletter did not change the placesbar shortcuts on my Word or Excel open document window. They did for my notepad window. How do I change them for Word and Excel? I am a Windows 2000 operating system user.

With Office XP, you Go to File>Open, find the Folder you want.
With the folder selected, go to Tools on the menu bar of the Open dialog box and choose Add to "My Places"

I am an Office 2000 user, not an Office XP user. This solution does not apply to Office 2000 / Windows 2000.
