I see that many others are having the same problem I am:
Networking and sharing resoures between heterogenous
Windows machines.

I have a small office LAN with an XP-home, Win2K and ME
OS. All connect via the router to the Internet, but I
can't get resources sharing going, file folder on the XP
and a printer on the ME?

Is anyone getting an answer other than upgrading all the
machines to the same OS?

Thanks
