Sharing Question

[PT]

I have two computers linked via Ethernet cable + router. I wanted to test
sharing a notebook between the two. So here's what I've done:

1. On computer 1, I created a new shared notebook with the inventive name
"Shared Notebook". It's located in the MyDocs | ON Notebooks folder, and
opens normally on Computer 1 with the default sections and pages

2. On Computer 2, I opened ON, and clicked on "All Notebooks" . Shared
Notebook doesn't appear.

3. On computer 2, I opened My Network Places and drilled down to the
"Shared Notebook" fielder. Clicking on it opens ON to the same default as
step 1.

So I assume I've neglected a step which will put the "Shared Notebook" link
into a position that the folder appears in the ON "All Notebooks" roster.

Please Advise.

If I'm understanding your steps correctly...it doesn't just
automatically appear on the "All Notebooks" list. You have to open it -
and once it's open just leave it open unless you have a reason to close
it.

Or am I misunderstanding your question?

Here's what I did. I copied the "Shared Notebook" link in My Network Places
over to the My Docs | ON Notebooks folder. Then I double clicked it,
opening the shared notebook.

Voila! The Shared Notebook now appears on the list of Notebooks when I
click on "All Notebooks".
