How to make a Homescreen Shortcut to a specific File Folder ?

I used to be able to do this using Astro File Manager on my DX but now can't see a way to do this on the Razr Maxx.

I have a file folder on my SD card that contains a bunch of data files. I'd like to have a Shortcut to that on my screen for quick access to the files.

Any words of wisdom on hos to do that? Maybe I need a different APP than Astro ??

thanks in advance.

Cody, I thought about answering, but as you probably know I don't have a Razr Maxx to test it out myself. I have used the Estrongs File Explorer to create a folder shortcut on the Thunderbolt. I haven't needed to make one on the Nexus yet.

Surprised - really? Nobody has created a Shortcut to a Folder on your SD Card ? hmm... I used to be able to do this on my DX.

Thanks Ann - let me try THAT one ...

Edit -- YES !! That one has the SHORTCUT option .. works perfectly .. Uninstall ASTRO

ES FILE EXPLORER is the Answer

Wow! A "shot in the dark" actually "hit its mark" so to speak.
