Hi,
I did something that made the accessability to the Shared Folder go away. When I try to move something to the folder or save something to the folder, I get the message "Access is denied".
I have Administrator privileges and I am running XP Home Edition.
How do I restore the accessability to the Shared Documents folder???
 
To share files and folders on your computer

1.. Open My Documents.
2.. Click the file or folder you want to share.
3.. Drag the file or folder to Shared Documents in Other Places.
Notes

a.. To open My Documents, click Start, and then click My Documents.
b.. If you are connected to a network domain, the Shared Documents, Shared
Pictures, and Shared Music folders are not available.
c.. If the file or folder you want to share is not located in My Documents
or its subfolders, use Search to find it. To open Search, click Start, and
then click Search.
d.. Moving or copying a file or folder to Shared Documents makes it
available to everyone who uses your computer.

I have the same problem as described by Jonas. It is not solved however by the change suggested by Rich Barry. Any other hints
