My question was, is there any way to use the cygwin links, not the windows
ones, to also be able to work in the open dialog box in MS Office products
like excel for example. As I said, it is working in windows explorer. The
only reason why I was mentioning about the windows links is because they
were working in excel and I figured it would be a good example.
