HELP! Networked XP Question My Documents and Drive Sharing Questions

Hi:

First let me just say thank you to anyone who is willing to offer help. I haven't worked on computers in quite a while and I am very rusty. My new boss would like for me to change his computer network so that there is only one My Documents (networked) to save to on his computer. I looked at his computer and saw that his C drive is the shared drive, (has the hand symbol) he also has a backup external hard drive -- the Z drive. He is telling me that the other computers on the network have been saving to the Z drive (not a logical drive, again -- an external backup hard drive).

Is there a way to merge all documents from both the local My Documents and the networked My Documents and make it into only one place to save on his computer?

Please help -- I know that this is probably a simple, simple task but I'm not seeing the answers.

Also, what am I missing with the mapping? The C drive on his computer is marked as the shared drive, so why are the other computers using the Z drive as the network drive?
