Hi all

My first post:)

I want to create a drop down menu in which I set up to link directly to certain folders within the design centre

I have created the drop down menu already but need a hand working out the macro path for each command linking to each specific folder

^C^C_adcenter(path to the specific folder)

Would this macro path be the correct way to link it and or can someone help me out

Thanks in advance

The ADCenter command simply turns on the DC. To have it open on a specific folder you'll need the ADCNavigate command. So perhaps something like this:
^C^C_ADCenter;_ADCNavigate "c:/myfolder1/";Note the use of forward slashes in commands, the backslash interprets as pause for user input. Also wrap paths in quotes to allow for spaces in folder names.

Edit, on second thought ... the quotes aren't needed. So you could simply have:
^C^C_ADCenter;_ADCNavigate c:/My First Folder/;
