Read Helmig's website on DCC. It helped me a lot. http://network.fament.com/helmig/indexfam.htm Importantly - you need to Enable Browsmaster on the host to s be able to see the files on the guest. On Win98 Start/Settings/Control Panel/Networks - highlight FILE AND PRINTER SHARING click PROPERTIES, select ENABLE BROWSE MASTER. Let me know if it helps
