Thanks again Malke, I had suspected as much, and yes, the data for
these programs really should be somewhere in My Documents.

I am using XP Pro on all systems, but Program Files cannot be shared.

I have found however, that now "Simple File Sharing" is off, I can
access subfolders of Program Files no problem (although not using
Explorer, of course).

Glad that sorted it for you. Thanks for taking the time to post back.
