TweakUI can be used to customize the Places Bar (Common Dialogs) in Windows.
That is the dialog box you get when you select Save, Save As, or Open. There
are 5 slots on the Places Bar. You can change them to whatever you want in
TweakUI.

Hi SeaMaid,

For Office XP you can modify the Places Bar either through
the User Interface or the Registry

or with one of the 3rd party tools such as those at
