Vista File Sharing failure

I just had to reinstall Vista from scratch. I tried to set up my folders to
share files so I could see them over my home network. I set up another USER
name, with password, exactly like the user on the other computer.
I right click on properties, select sharing tab, select sharing, add the
USER, and then it says "take a few minutes". After it completes I go back
and check...and NO folders are shared. It didn't work. When I check Network
and Sharing Center to see which folders/files are shared it is empty. nada
Any ideas what the problem is?
Thanks
PS. I checked to make sure the workgoup names are the same. (Printer
sharing is enabled and works)
