I just bought a laptop with windows vista for my daughter. She needs to
print off a document she did in microsoft office. She transferred it to our
home computer, windows xp, and it shows up as a bunch of squares. Help! As
you can probably tell I don't know much about computers and she needs this
for school tomorrow.

I work at a University and we see this a lot. Is she using Microsoft Office
2007? I am asking because if you are on an older version ie: Microsoft Office
2003 then she will have to save it as such before sending it to your computer
in order for you to view and print it.

Are you trying to let the laptop share the drive C: from another computer?
(Or letting that computer share its vital settings through a network?).
That won't be wise - and as far as I know, Vista would'n let you.
However, you can share those folders you want to by changing them to be
shared.
And, if you don,t want these folders to be changed by the ones, you are
sharing, copy the folders to the folder "Shared Folders" in c:\Users and make
that folder be shared. (Its the Microsoft-way)
If this was not, what you were asking for, be a little more specific.
