Accessing files stored on your own PC through the Remote Desktop

It is possible to set up the Remote Desktop to allow you to view your own PC's drives, as well as the campus H: drive.

• From the Remote Desktop Connection login window select Options (you must do this before you click Connect)
• Click on the Local Resources tab
• Under Local devices select Disk drives
• Click Connect

Once you are logged in, your own PC's drives will be visible in the My Document window of the Remote Desktop.

Linking files to your references

It is now easier to link files to your references. Rather than having to use the menu commands you can now simply drag and drop the file onto the reference in your list of references.

Remember: you can link to Word and Excel files, as well as PDF documents.
