Move "My Documents" to Storage Card

(Also posted at TreoCentral.com in case you think you've seen this before)

I did a search but turned up nothing on this topic... maybe I'm just bad at searching.

Anyway, I finally got an 8GB Kingston storage card for my Pro and I have uninstalled and reinstalled most of my Apps to the card for obvious space reasons.

I am curious as to how I could move the "My Documents" folder to the storage card. If anything I would like to move the images to the card because they tend to take up a decent amount of space.

I changed the camera settings to record pictures to the card but it adds a \DCIM\ folder and puts the picture in there. I would like it to go into a "My Pictures" folder that I created on the card.

I found the following registry key but it didn't seem to have an effect when I changed the External location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Pictures\Camera\OEM\Pict ureLocation

The standard "External" value was \DCIM\. I changed this to \Storage Card\My Documents\My Pictures but as I said, it didn't work.

I'd like to also do this for videos.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.
