Wireless network-Share files and folders help

Hi,
We have 3 laptops in our home.we use a secured wireless network
connection to the router which is used to connect to internet.now all
three laptops are connecting to the internet via same wireless
network.now we need to share files and folders among ourselves.


I tried by right clicking the folder ---> clicking sharing and security
----> Checking Share this file in the network.its getting shared(i'am
getting a hand symbol holding the folder icon).but when i go My network
place --- >Entire network --->Microsoft windows Netork ---> Click<work
group name> windows is throwing some error message "<work group name>
is not accessible .You might not have permission to use this network
resource.contact the administrator of this server to fond out if you
have access permissions.The list of servers of this workgroup is not
currently available"

we have different computer names and the same workgroup name.we have
named the workgroup name and the wireless network one and the same.plz
tell us how to share the files and folder within the wireless network.

Can anyone tell me how to solve this issue.thanks in advance.

Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what is allowed
to be shared.
