Hi steve,
We have a browse option that should give you all the available work groups and
machines, etc,on the network to which you are connected. You should be able to
select a work group, them machine, then folder, and press Select to connect to
it. You would then be asked for a user name and password. if they are not
required, press OK, and the location is saved and connected to. this option
didn't work for her, that's the reason I gave her the alternative.
