Default Creating a new shortcut in "Save As" window

Hello,
How does one creat a new shortcut in Excel's "Save As" window? Currently,
the Save As window sports short cuts for History, My Documents, Favorites,
etc. I'd like to add some of my own to cut down on the mouse clicks required
to save files in sub-sub-sub directories.
Thanks,
E.T.F.

What version of excel are you using?

In xl2002 and xl2003, you can do file|open and then go to the parent folder of
the folder you want. Then click on the Tools button (top right corner) and
click "Add to Places".

If you're using xl2k, MS has a COM addin that's called Places.exe
that allows you to update the places list.

I don't use xl2007 enough to know for sure, but it might be similar to
xl2002/xl2003.

Dave,

Thank you for the answer. I use Excel 2002, and your method worked!
