John,
I have kept a lot of messages that I use when I get in trouble. This one looks like it will work, if not, I will be willing to send you more.

on the mac, you go to system preferences, sharing, tab into the services table, arrow down the list, tab to the start buttton for services you want to enable. In order to access your mac from windows, you start windows sharing and then you enable the account you want windows to have access to through your mac. In order to do this, you have to find a button with the vo cursor that says "enable accounts". activate this button and with the vo cursor, you will find accounts with labels on one line and a check box which will be unchecked on the nextt line. press the space bar on the checkbox to activate it. you will be asked to authenticate the action by supplying your pass word. If you are not asked to authenticate, the checkbox is not checked and you'll need to perform the virtual click.
Once you have authenticated the account, activate the done button and close system prefs.
On the windows system, go to your map network drive box and put in your server name or try browsing for the mac. you should then be able to map the drive with no problem. One way I do this is to use the ip address of the system for instance, I would type: \ \192.168.1.102 in the run box or the map network drive edit field. You can also type: \\192.168.1.102\mike and click ok and you should land right in your user folder. You can also do this from network places. You of course will want to use the correct ip address and name.

I see the mac from the pc, but can't get into it.
In windows there is a wizard that helps you set up your network.
I just wondered how you do it on the mac.
Thanks Mike.
