The link is file and printer sharing in Vista. Have you tried the following: In Vista Networking and Sharing: 1 Network Discovery ON 2 File Sharing ON 3 Public Folder Sharing ON 4 Password Protected OFF 5 and the Network should be set to “Private” And have you made sure that the workgroup names are the same on XP and Vista. By default XP is MSHOME and Vista is WORKGROUP; they should be the same. Also "Shared Docs" in XP is called "Public Folder" in Vista "Hadi" wrote: I have a wireless XP-Vista network.
