It doesn't show up instantly, you have to wait a second or four. Also,
just because you have a document in a shared folder on one computer,
that doesn't mean it's *physically* on the other computer too, just that
both computers can *see* the same document.
I understood it isn't instantaneous after this was mentioned. It's
been hours and still not showing up even earlier when I wrote.
I think you may just not be giving it enough time for the contents of
the folders to appear maybe, sounds like you had/have it working.
Yes, one folder is working - that's it.
lol, it's a matter of practise. For those that have done it a few times
there's nothing better than your own little home network to get things
done between computers.
I've even tried adding sharing to a folder w/in a shared folder
thinking I might have to share each folder or file I have put in a
shared folder. (Desperation, ya know.)

That name in parenthesis is just to tell you that what you are viewing
is not "C:\" etc. and is produced just for that window and is not
actually part of anything but a visual aid. Don't try to have that name
in parenthesis not show, it's how you tell which computer the document
you are looking at/modifying is on and at some point in time you will be
glad it is there.
Alright, thanks.
