Adding folders to share over a network???

Hi
I have just connected my PC and laptop wirelessly.
There are certain folders that I would like to be accessed by my laptop, I thought that by right clicking the folder and ticking the share box that would do the trick. However the folders still dont appear on the laptop??

What do I need to do?

Dan

Howdy:

It would be a VERY great help if you gave your operating systems as well along with how you setup the network (tcp/ip, etc)..

If you are using WinXP, make sure you disable "Simple File Sharing" in order to get the "share" option to show..
