Default File Arassignments

I have an application looking for files on volume I:, but had to mount them
on volume D:. Isn't there a way to reallocate folders in XP to a virtual
drive number, ie change D: /photographs to I: Photographs? THat would
enable the database application to find it.'s referenced files. I can't use
the assign command because this maps the entire D: volume.

Thanks,

Dick W
