I am not sure I understand the question, but I thing you may want to create the same username and password on both computers so that they can access each other.

ok, ill try again.

i want my son who uses a laptop with XP, to be able to log onto my other
computer which uses VISTA, by using a username and password. On that same
laptop i also want my wife to be able to log onto my VISTA computer with her
own username and password. Meaning they have different access to different
files etc on that VISTA computer.

HI, for that, i think you must share a specific folder for both of them. in
sharing and security you can choose what autorisation you want to give to
them.for example :right click on that directory--"sharing and
security"--security--allow you wife or your child with a specific right
on sharing give a name to the new share , save and close.
