Where to put .dat files

[ruhar]

Can we put a sticky note in each discussion or somewhere easily found that explains where .dat and .stock files are located? Every once in awhile I need to add a file to the folder and I can never remember where it's located. I search the forum for awhile before I finally stumble on where the folder is located. I am going to make an alias of it now, but I'm sure it would really help others who are roaming the "Search this Forum" dark, dank dungeon of worthless searches.
