Question EASIER WAY TO ACCESS NETWORK PC's ??

First of all I want to thank in Advance anyone who replies to this message to help me out.

Can someone tell me is there an easier way to access my computers on the network?

I purchased a SOCKET wireless card for my AXIM, works great so far. Now I'm trying to find my computers.

The only way I have been able to access my computers is by opening the INTERNET EXPLORER and on the address bar type in:

\\computer name

Also when I try to open a file that I find in a shared folder of that computer..well thats the problem... I CANT OPEN ANY FILES, for example a picture or something, I cannot get it to open up on my AXIM screen. I can COPY and PASTE it to my axim and then open it, but I CANT OPEN IT from the HOST Storage.

Is there a program out there that will allow this?

For example, if I have a DIVX movie on my HARD DRIVE on my computer, and I decide to open that movie on my axim from the location on my Main Computer and try to view the movie without having to copy it to my AXIM......

IS THIS POSSIBLE???? I heard someone say but I cant find it on the forums that there is a program that you can use to do all of this, basically allowing you to use your hard drive on your computer as a storage for your files for the AXIM.

HELP PLEASE

Resco Explorer (a file manager) works good on networks for me. If you hit the network icon, it will scan the current network you're on and display the nearby computers. Kinda like Network Neighborhood in Windows.

You can also consider NetUse
and PocketLance .
The first is free, the second is shareware
