Making Private Folders Accessible

[Guest]

I had to reinstall Windows XP Home edition because of difficulties. After reinstalling it, the OS created another set of users besides the originals. The "My Documents" folder in my original user folder was private. Now on my new user profile, I cannot access that folder because I'm not on that name. Is there any way I can access this folder? Any information would be helpful. Thanks.
