how to give each USB stick a specific drive letter?

how to give each USB stick a specific drive letter
Each time I plug my USb stick to my PC it sometimes get a new drive letter. This is especially annoying, if you use a backupprogram to backup your harddisk data on it. Due to the changed drive letters, the backupprogram loses all file references.
