opening documents

I have recently purchased a new PC with Windows Vista Home Premium installed
as the operating system.

I have also purchased and installed Adobe Design Standard CS3 software and
installed the bundled Office One software.

When I try and open a file using the File > Open menu the dialog box appears
but the program then stalls and cannot seem to find the files. The default
folder being looked for is Documents. I have a folder called Kingdom Web
Services that was set up when I first started the PC and followed the install
process of Vista.

Is there a way I can get my PC to recognise this Kingdom Web Services folder
as a default?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I cannot really use my PC to
its full potential until this is resolved.

Regards

Tony Dunne

You might want to try and create your Kingdom web service folder under your
user account

example c:\users\<your user name>\Kingdom Web Services\

Hope this helps

Re: opening documents

When you choose File>Open are you able to navigate to the Kingdom Web
Services folder and open your document from there?
If so, many programs will default to the last location used to open a
document. Some programs enable you to set defaults through Preferences.
