How do you share files between 2 computers? (windows XP and
Windows 98)

Thank you for your help.

There are several ways to do this, all involve connecting the two computers
in some way (direct NIC to NIC, DCC, HUB, Switch, Router). Then once the
computers are connected physically, ensure file and printer sharing is
installed and configured on each computer. Then share at least one folder
on each computer.

I suggest you read some basic setup sites such as:

The process is relatively simple but requires several steps. Don't get
frustrated and follow the directions.
