Creating a "sendto" for a DVD-RW USB External?

[stevezygote]

I just acquired a DVD-RW USB External. It goes surprisingly fast! I'm on an XP SP2 Home box with a 2.2Ghz Celeron, .5GIG RAM and an 80GIG HDD. Everything's patched and updated. I have an internal CD-RW/DVD-ROM which Windows sees in my context menu "sendto" list. Windows writes to the RW disks with no problem. I have read on the net that Windows XP supports direct writing to a DVD-RW. How can this be acheived? THank you.

If you can already drag and drop files on to the DVD-RW icon in explorer, you should just be able to find your SendTo folder, and put a shortcut to it.

Problem is going to be that it's an external drive, and may not always be present, or even on the same drive letter.

If it's always likely to be on the same drive letter, create the shortcut in %USERPROFILE%\SendTo
