Thank you Mike Bob & Chuck for all your help. I can' tell how long I was
struggling!
I would have have got back to you sooner, but I have had a spell in hospital
and am now more or less sorted.
The biggest problem seems to have been that Windows 2000 is not really too
much like XP for this purpose. For instance when I prepared a floppy on the
XP the 2000 machine said that only W98,98SE, Millenium & XP accepted the
netsetup.exe floppy.
Anyway thanks again, it is really a relief to have it sorted, and you gave
me the sort of help I might of got from colleaques before I retired.

Regards, Alan Blackburn

Thanks for the feedback, Alan! That's what makes peer-peer help work.
