Jenny,

If I understand you correctly, I will have to manually enter the path for each of the folders in my network that I want to share. I can certainly do that, but I thought that was the purpose of having a work group.

Hi Jane,

I am not near a computer, am writing this on my Icon, so can't join you in the
LevelStar room.  But let me suggest a different way of connecting to your
shares that might get you better results.  When in the Network folders list,
press the Menu key and choose new folder. Then type in your location manually
using //computer name/share name.  so, if your computer is Jane, and you're
sharing your My Documents folder you would type //Jane/My Documents. Remember that if you change the share name of the folder in the file sharing properties,
that you need to enter the share name, not the actual folder name.  If you
don't change it, it defaults to the name given to the folder, and that's what
you should enter.

I know my file sharing is turned on because I can see my Icon from our three
computers.  I can see the files from my husband's computer and all files
from and on the other computers.  I just can't figure out why the I con is
saying "empty node, browse for network folder."

Jane, still in the LS room
