Hello Again, There was no joy. When I right clicked and went to properties
there was no security tab to go to the advanced button. Both sharing and
security was the same tab at the top as well as general and customize. I
have a local network w/ xps2 on both. I was surprised not to see that tab
for security. Other Ideas? Thanks Again!
