I was wondering if someone could explain to me how I can create a personalized folder to contain objects imported into Vue...I was hoping this could be a folder accessed with the other folders of Vue standard objects (i.e. those that are already there when Vue is installed). If you can help, thank you....

I do it one of two ways. For objects, with Vue closed, I create a new folder in the My Documentse-on softwareVue 6 Infiniteobjects folder. Say I'm importing buildings by Stonemason. I would create My Documentse-on softwareVue 6 InfiniteobjectsStonemason. In this new folder I place all the vobs I have made. When I open Vue, it notices the new folder and creates a prv file so the items show up when you click on load objects.
The other way is to keep a folder of vobs (it can be anywhere on you computer). Start Vue, and select load object. Now click the New Collection icon and select the folder with your vob objects.
The only difference between each method is determining how tidy you like your hard drive. I like to keep all of my bought items or only those items that I would use for multiple projects in the My Documents folder. Anywhere else, they may get moved, deleted, whatever - they are my working files, not things I always want in Vue visual libraries...
Hope that helps!
