Alan, I mentioned this in my list of suggested steps on 2/5. Johnnie, I
looked over your answer again and you said that sharing was on on both computers, but you did not say how you determined that. The Network Connection Wizard, which I think is what Alan is referring to, does more than just simply turn sharing on or off. For example, it adds a File and Printer Sharing exception to the Windows Firewall configuration. In any case, this has helped me in the past with these kinds of problems. Again, one way to get to it is via All Programs Accessories Communication. Paul "Alan Morris [MSFT]" wrote in message ... have you run the network wizard on both machines?

Dear Alan and Paul,
I would like to thank you both for your time and effort in helping me. I've decided that this is creating too much frustration and discontent on my part, so I will stop. It shouldn't be this hard to have a home network, microsoft should have given much more detailed instructions from the beginning (i.e., creating an account, logging on to other computers, etc.). I have reached a point that I think it's better to just connect another printer to MOM.

You're welcome.
I too struggled to set up a home network at my in laws that allowed printer sharing. But then again, one of my in laws is prone to downloading spyware and he can't even ping himself without getting a socket error 65, so that's probably why! I have given up for now. Paul "Johnnie" wrote in message ... Dear Alan and Paul, I would like to thank you both for your time and effort in helping me. I've decided that this is creating too much frustration and discontent on my part, so I will stop. It shouldn't be this hard to have a home network, microsoft should have given much more detailed instructions from the beginning (i.e., creating an account, logging on to other computers, etc.). I have reached a point that I think it's better to just connect another printer to MOM.
