I have a wireless G Linksys router providing internet connection to my
laptop. I go to My Network Places and select View Workgroups and I try to
connect to the other computer (the desktop) but when I click it, a message
pops up telling my I do not have access to that computer.
The laptop is XP Home, the Desktop is XP Pro. Can anyone resole my problem
or give me instructions on how to properly set up file sharing with my
router?

ok... it seems i have it set up correctly.. just that something on the
desktop side is blocking my access to it. Iturned off the SP2 firewall
already so...
 
Call LinkSys at 1-800-326-7114 and I am sure they can resolve whatever
problem that you are having. Support is free.
