Networked computers have the advantage of sharing resources. No
longer do you have to use discs or flash drives to move data
from one computer to another. Mapping drives on your computer is
a feature Microsoft Windows offers to allow you access to files
from another computer over a network. Mapping a network drive
allows you to treat a hard drive located on another computer as
if it were on your own computer. With a mapped network drive,
you can easily share data with every other computer on the
network. Click the "Start" button and select "Computer" from the
system menu of the computer containing the hard drive you want
to share on the network. Select the folder you want to share.
Right-click with your mouse and select "Properties" from the
menu. Select the "Sharing" tab. Click the "Advanced Sharing"
button. Check the box next to "Share this folder." Note the
default name of the shared folder. Click the "OK" button, and
then click the "Close" button. This folder is now available to
share on the network. Clic
