I can access files/printers

1) from Vista computer to XP or W98 computer
2) from XP computer to Vista or W98 computer
3) from W98 computer to XP computer

but I CAN'T access files/printers

4) from W98 computer to Vista computer

I've read all the posting and see things that address #1-3 above, but not 4.
Is #4 possible???

Are you asking whether a W98 computer can access shared resources that
belong to a Vista computer? If so, the answer is "No".
