This may sound horrible...but...

By any chance, is there a way to create shortcuts to folders?
Like a "C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\My Music" (You know what I mean...) shortcut...? For some reason I can't get it to do so, and I don't want to hear that it can't be done...if someone could help me out that would be really great...

Right click and drag the folder where you want the shortcut. Then, when you release the mouse button, a dialog will appear asking what you want to do. Choose "create shortcut here". Done.

With OD you can click and drag the folder to the OD panel. When the shortcut arrow appears, release the mouse button. Done.

i've encountered the problem that when linking to a folder, object dock didn't open the shortcut properly. for that, and bear with me i havn't used it in a while, i have the target as, say, c:\documents and settings\mine and i make the command line, or whatever that other action line is, Explorer. so it opens explorer then points to the shortcut ive given.
