Hello,

To add to my previous reply. You can also substiture a folder with a drive name. Following is how to do

Subst

Associates a path with a drive letter. Used without parameters, subst displays the names of the virtual drives in effect.
Syntax:
subst [drive1: [drive2:]Path]
subst drive1: /d
Parameters
drive1: : Specifies the virtual drive to which you want to assign a path.
drive2: : Specifies the physical drive that contains the specified path (if different from the current drive).
Path : Specifies the path that you want to assign to a virtual drive.
/d : Deletes a virtual drive.

For e.g.

subst q: c:\C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\My Received Files\user3588380533\History
