Hello Again,
I may not been as clear as I would've liked to be in my last message.
This whole process did work with RC1 with no problem. My password is correct
especially considering I can open up notepad files & read them. A setup
"Type" of file will not run from that location. I can copy that exact file
from the location onto my local machine & then run it perfectly fine with no
issues. I have not changed the permissions on the network location. The
only difference is that I am now running the prodcutino version of Vista
Business. Now, off of the top of my head I believe when I tried to open a
word document from that location it told me it couldn't find the file even
though I was clicking on the file to open it. Now this last part is from my
memory, but I don't know if that will help?
Thanks Again,
