I have quicken 2005 deluxe. I usually do the bills but i'm going away for work for a few weeks and want my wife to be able to enter stuff like electronic payments. so the quicken data folder is under my documents on the home pc (running win xp pro, ntfs drive).
I've looked at ways to give access to her userid/account on this same machine but it appears with windows it's all or nothing - you can share folders with *all* accounts on the machine or none of them. same thing with network sharing. where the heck is the security tab where you used to be able to indicate which users or groups you could provide access to a share?
i'm in a workgroup here on our home network, not a domain. file and printer sharing is on, we share printers, etc. when i right click the folder i only see "sharing and security" which brings up the same thing that 'properties' does, the panel for local sharing or network sharing that doesn't let you fine tune it. i dont' want to allow all users on the computer access because i have a guest account and my kids accounts are on this machine too (windows accounts, not quicken accounts!).i tried this on the 'shared folders', off the root of the C drive, etc. Nothing works.
any help with that?
