Well of course! Thanks! I'd forgotten that the directory
on PC1 had to be mapped to a drive for PC2 to see it as a
drive. One thing that helped me forget that is that the
directory that we needed to map to drive G is named g. So
when I saw the directory in Network Neighborhood, I didn't
realize that the directory g wasn't drive G. Pretty lame
excuse, but it's all I have. Thanks again, Lewis. I
appreciate your help.
