MY DOCUMENTS not visible

When i use the file dialog boxes in apps (eg open file dialog box in word)
all my folders are listed except for the "My Documents" folder. I have to
type in My Documents to get it to go to that folder and then select the file
i want.
Is there a way to make it visible again?
Does it have something to do with the registry?
Cheers

    Open Windows Explorer -> Click on Tools -> Go to
    Now type My Documents, it should show up.
    Now on the left side of explorer, right click on My Documents folder and
    clck on properties -> Uncheck the box that says Hidden.
