| Hi Adams,
|
| With your help, I found the incorrectly set keys. They were in
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
| Server\90\Tools\Shell.
|
| I redirected the My Documents folder a while ago and apparently this
product
| was not fully informed of that. Of the 10 keys or so, most of them had
the
| wrong path.
|
| Thanks for your help!
