   From: hayesstw@telkomsa.net   
      
   For years and years I've been writing LibreOffice documents on my   
   laptop computer running Windows 7, and saving them on my desktop   
   computer,running Windows XP (which is attached to the printer).   
      
   This morning, when I wanted to save the3 document in the Shared   
   Documents folder, and it asked for a user name and password. m   
      
   I've never had a user name and password, because it's a home network.   
      
   Other than saving the document on a USB flash drive and moving the   
   file that way, how can I restore network access, and where and how do   
   I create a username and password so that Windows 7 will let me into   
   the network again? Do I create it on the laptop or on the desktop?   
      
   And why is it suddenly asking for a password when it never asked for   
   one before?
