[AChristie]

I have a desktop which is running XP home version and I just brought a router
and a laptop, which is also running XP home version. I have the laptop setup
on the router. but I want to set the 2 computer up in a network so that I
can print from the laptop.

You could try the Win XP group or one of the many networking groups. It's
definitely not an Office issue. At least, not yet.
