Move Users to "D" drive

I have two hard drives and I wish to store all data for all users on drive
D. I would like to move the Users folder with all its subfolders to the D
drive. I want to maintain the folder hierarchy that they currently have so
that each User's Documents, Music, Pictures, etc. move with them. Programs
that default writing data to Documents, Pictures or Music should recognize
that the location of these folders has moved and store the data accordingly.



I moved Music and Pictures to D but when I moved Documents, it appears that
Vista made drive "D" the "Documents" folder instead of creating a Documents
folder in D.



D should have a Users system folder for each user on the system.
