Search for it using windows search, advanced options, sendTo, then just add
what you want to the folder.

Start --> Run -->
Type in:

SendTo

Click OK and copy a shortcut to whatever you want to be able to "Send To" in
there.


If that doesn't work, go to "C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\SendTo"
(making the obvious changes) and copy a shortcut to whatever you want to be
able to "Send To" in there.

Have you worked it out yet?

When you have add 'send to' to the 'send to' menu. In the future you'll be
able to add things to the 'send to' menu more easily, just choose 'send to'
'send to'.

Two years ago in the "customize" group I asked a ?. Basically does anyone
know of a program that does.....XYZ (their was one for win 98 but it did not
work on XP). Your responce was that I go to school and learn programing,then
write my own program.Please tell my how that was helpful or ethical?

That a stupid thing to say. It will move or copy files there, probably not what the person wanted.

It is you that is saying the stupid thing- it works on this machine, and on
every other machine I've added it to. It can be useful (for example) if you
have several graphics programs installed- Windows links a file extension to
one of them- this way you can choose which one you use.

Would you like to make even more stupid comments based on things you have no
experience of?

You need to create shortcuts and send them to sendto.

That's the problem with MVP's, if they don't know nothing then it's wrong.

I didn't give the full process in the first post, I made the mistake of
thinking people had some intelligence to apply to this which doesn't seem to
be the case for one of the posters.

As I said you don't know what you are talking about.

Experiment.

Add a shortcut to Sendto in Sendto. Right click any folder or file and choose Send To - Send To. The item will be copied to the sendto folder. This is not something that anyone would want and nor is it the effect that you claim it has. One needs to hold down Ctrl + Shift while sending to sendto.

===========================================
This info from the website above is useless for WXP-Home/SP2. You get an
error when you type sendto in the Start/Run box. So that doesn't work.

And the information below - that doesn't work either. I can't delete
anything from the SendTo folder as it still shows up in the sendto menu on
right click even when it's no longer in the folder. Adding things to that
folder don't work either, as they DO NOT show up on right click. How are
things added in WXP-Home/Sp2 ?

To add a destination to the Send To menu, you must add a shortcut to the
SendTo folder. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, and then
click Run.
2. In the Open box, type sendto, and then click OK.
3. Add a destination by doing one of the following: • Use the
drag-and-drop operation to move the item that you want to the SendTo folder;
to do so, right-click, and then click Create Shortcuts Here.
-or-
• Point to New on the File menu, and then click Shortcut.

=============================
Follow the instructions in the Create Shortcut Wizard.
A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on
the Send To menu.
NOTE: To open the SendTo Folder, you can also perform the following steps:
1. Click Start, and then click My Computer.
2. Double-click the drive where Windows is installed (usually drive C,
unless you have more than one drive on your computer).
3. If you cannot view the items on your drive when you open it, under
System Tasks, click Show the contents of this drive.
4. Double-click the Documents and Settings folder.
5. Double-click the folder of the user whose SendTo menu you want to
change (usually your own).
6. Double-click the SendTo folder.
7. The SendTo folder is hidden by default. If the folder is not
visible, on the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then on the View tab,
click Show hidden files and folders.

What error are you getting?
Are you using an administrator account?
Each user has a SendTo folder. Do you have more than one user?

Ok, How many Sendto folders do you find in the search window? My user account
is in the Admin group, my folder is for me, my name on a user account. On my
system I get 6 sendto folders total and I just find mine, it works fine. If
you are adding to a sendto folder that belongs to someone else you will not
see it in your user accounts drop down menu. If you are not the administrator
or setup in the same group your changes may not take affect? Did you do an
advanced search?

What is the error that you get when you type sendto in the Start | Run box?

Who are you logged on as?

Type or paste this in the Start | Run box...
%homepath%

What folder opens?

Type or paste this in the Start | Run box...
%homepath%\SendTo

What folder opens?

Do a Search on your machine for SendTo.
Follow the instructions here...

Yeah - this happens on some machines. Use explorer and just go to it.
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\SendTo

You could even cut/paste these lines into a notepad document, save that as
C:\opensendto.cmd and run it..

explorer "%USERPROFILE%\SendTo"

Windows XP - doesn't matter if you are the only one using it.. You are
unlikely to be the only user. Especially if it is XP Home Edition, then you
have the Administrator user that can only normally be accessed in Safe Mode.

>> Each user has a SendTo folder. Do you have more than one user?
>

You don't. I have seen this happen before - where Start-->Run-->SendTo
stopped working - reasoning (to me) unknown and I was never bothered by it..
Since I knew how to get to it.

You could even type the line I gave above into Start-->Run and it would work
fine..

(explorer "%USERPROFILE%\SendTo")
