home network permissions

Hi there,

I am running Windows XP home on both my PC and my laptop.
I have set up a wireless home network between my PC and my laptop and I can access the internet and print documents from my laptop via my printer which is wired to my PC. I can also access my files on my laptop from my PC (I have added the my documents folder as a shared folder) I cannot however access my PC files from my laptop. From my laptop, When I go to my computer>my network places>view workgroup computers, my PC and laptop are both listed but when I click on my PC icon (called Frank) I get the following message:
"\\Frank is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions."

Can anyone tell me what this means please? and how I overcome it?

Thank you

Frank Milnes
