Default Permissions for multiple users

Hi All,

I have 2 laptops running Vista Home Permium.

My laptop has a user 'Chad'
My wife's laptop has a user 'Chantelle'

(mine doesn't have chantelle, or visa versa)

Can I give full access both ways without create another user on each
computer? On our work computers if I don't have access it asks for a
username and password, but at home, it just says access denied.

Thanks
Chad

At work you probably have a domain and a business OS which has different
networking options. At home you have a workgroup and a home OS which has
simpler networking options. Your simplest course of action is to create
identical accounts on each computer. This is the most secure and easiest to
implement. Here are some links that may help.
