Hi - I switched a users computer yesterday to a new
computer with Windows XP Professional. She was using
Windows 98. I mapped all of the network drives. When we
open her folder on the users drive (located on my NT
server) her files are gone. I have access to everyones
folders so I when to my pc to see if they were there but
we just couldn't see them and again, nothing. Where did
they go. Please help asap. Thanks, Donna
