Use subst to associate a path with a drive letter...

subst P: "c:\my documents\electronics\pic\my 2003 pic projects\"

will make the following directory and file name
c:\my documents\electronics\pic\my 2003 pic projects\radio
telemetry\temperature\i2ctemperature.asm
into
p:\radio telemetry\temperature\i2ctemperature.asm

Alternately, you can also use the 8.3 directory names to shorten it:
c:\mydocu~1\electr~1\pic\my2003~1\radiot~1\temper~1\i2ctem~1.asm

Which should give you room for up to 6 levels of long name directories
and a file name and drive letter.

But if you are using directories to organize things anyway, just put the
subst command in your startup and you'll be happier in the long run.
Too bad windows doesn't have links like *nix.
