That's because what you are reading is for XP Pro, in order to have that tab
in Home Edition you need to boot to safe mode.

I have xp home.

I have just setup a laptop to access my desktop.

I can print and see the shared folder but I cannot save after editing.

It tells me the files are read only.

When i look at the desk top the files are not read only but the folder is.
I assume the file are getting this attribute from the folded but I do not
know how to remove this.

Everything I read say go to properties then the security tab and give
permissions to the folder for network users. When I do that there is no
security tab only a sharing tab which is setup for network access and
users
can edit the file.

Help
