To show willing :) I've added a howto on this subject to my occasionally-updated list of Python win32 howto-s: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/get-the-desktop-folder.html and a bonus, also from the shell area: http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/browse-for-a-folder.html I usually manage to do a few of these at one go once I gather momentum, so hopefully I'll add a few more in today or tomorrow.
