TO ENABLE SHARED DOCUMENTS YOU NEED TO HAVE A NETWORK CONNECTION(S).
1 . First go to START and select RUN
2 . In the RUN box type in CMD
From here you need to know which computer you want to connect to so you type
net view. Here you will see a list of computers on your network. For example type net view and i get
\\BILL'S PC. and i this is the computer i want so i type
net view \\BILL'S PC to see shared resources on Bills PC. so I type
net use x: \\BILLS'S PC\SharedDocs where x is the drive letter tha you want to assign. (works with printers too)
net use x: \\BILLS'S PC\C$ to share BILL'S localdrive, but this will ask you for a user name and password [you dont want this because its a security issue]
So when you go to your My Computer you will find your assigned drive letter.
thats pretty much it. Hope this helps.
