I have a ThinkPad and I use several wireless networks. How do I find other
resources on a network I use. (Printers, Other Computers, Availalbe disks such as those containing pictures or documents.) Right now, unless I'm told the names I can't find out what is available. Since I do work at night, I can't be calling people for infomation. kathyO |

When in My Network Places you should see 'Entire Network' or 'View Workgroup
Computers'. You will see 'Microsoft Windows Network' if you are in a domain environment under 'Entire network'. This should then display the workgroups available to you and the machines in them. By clicking on the machines you will see the resources that machine is sharing. This 'browser' service that keeps this list up to date can be a little unreliable and take time to generate. -- Dan Williams [MCSE] Imex Technical Services "kathyO" wrote: > I have a ThinkPad and I use several wireless networks.
