Andy,

Just *right* click drag and drop the folder you want to link to into the folder you want to link from. Then select "Create Shortcut" from the menu that appears. You can then rename the shortcut to the same name as the folder you are linking to.

That is, if I understand the question correctly :)

Cheers

Ian
