	Is it possible to change or designate a different default directory for Sesame's data and design files? �We have just purchased Sesame and my coworker and I are "piloting" the program for a couple of months before our tech. services dept. takes a look to see if it's a viable replacement for Q&A (which has been running on our server for well over 15 years). Currently we have it installed on both of our desktop computers and taking turns translating, redesigning, etc...we have all of our documents and office files on a shared hard drive and it would be so much easier to have Sesame point to that drive rather than email the files back and forth. Thank you all...I'm searching the forum and learning alot now that we've purchased Sesame. Charlie

	Hello Charlie, You can modify what directories Sesame will allow you to save to by changing the "rootdirs.ini" file. This file is located in your C:\Sesame directory, and can be opened in Notepad. To add a new directory, you will need to type the path to the directory into the document Example: Code E:\Files Data\ Data\Samples . [DRIVES] After you have made your changes to the rootdirs.ini document save and exit Notepad. The next time you start Sesame, you will notice that you now have access to your new directory. * Be sure to close Sesame before modifying the rootdirs.ini file
