Default Change Default Existing Project Folder

When I open VB 6.0, it asks if I want to open a New, Existing or Recent Project. How do I change the default folder for an Existing Project?
I tried Tools, Options but could not see anything there that would allow me to change the default Existing Folder.

Thanks.

Create a shortcut for VB in your desktop (or in the task bar), right click on it, select Properties, open the General tab and change the "Start in:" box to you prefer folder. You can even have multiple shortcuts, everyone starting in a different folder!

Thanks so much Marco. I knew it could be done. Just couldn't remember where.
