I'm using XP and want to give my daughter access to internet and to use Word. There are already set up on the pc. She has her own (limited user) acount but she cant see the Internet or Word in her list of programs..... So how do I give her acccess to some of the programs that I have installed under my user name.

thanks in advance ........

Well I'm no confuser expert as you know but had a quick look.
Go to My computer. Then look in shared documents and it tells you how to drag programs about. Did not do it but it looks simple. Probably not simple at all untill you know how todo it!!!!

Hi Sandra,

I'm not rich and posh enough to have XP, but if you do a search in your C Drive for "Desktop". Look in your one for Word and IE shortcuts and copy them to your daughter's account.

Ah but XP is different. Anyway I found this.


Using the Shared Documents folderShared folders are counterparts to your personal folders: My Documents, My Pictures, and My Music. Shared Documents, Shared Pictures, and Shared Music provide a place for you to store files, pictures, and music that everyone on your computer can access. For example, Billy can put his homework in Shared Documents so that dad can check his work. And mom can put digital pictures from the family vacation in Shared Pictures so that the whole family can see them.

Unlike your personal folders, shared folders cannot be made private. The contents of these folders are always available to anyone who uses your computer.

Learn how to:

Use Shared Documents to share files on your computer.
Use Shared Pictures and Shared Music to share pictures and music on your computer.
Make your personal folders private.
