    one computer, 7 users accounts need to share admin documents


    I want to be able to share Administrator documents and files with user acoounts on the same computer.... without having access to the internet.


    I only have one computer. But I have 7 different user accounts on that one computer. I want each of my users to have access to the Administrators documents (files and folders etc)

    I went to Administrator Documents, then I Right clicked on a folder, then I clicked on Share With>specific people> I click on the user account and then I get a box saying my folder was succcessfully shared, and now I need to email a link to the specific user account.

    I do all this and then switch user. I go to the users email and try to click on the link and it wont click. I try to copy and paste into the users documents, but it will not copy and paste.

    I go to the user's Documents and try to see if there is a link there....but nothing is there.

    What am I doing wrong?
    thanks

    I looked thru HELP, but I have only a single computer. I am not trying to interact with other computers, so I cant belong to a domain, workgroup or homegroup, because all these seem to involve multiple computers.

    To make things easier, you may consider just putting the documents you need shared between users, in the Shared Documents folder. This should not only allow you to share them between users that use the computer, but share them with people on your network (even if its a home network) should the need arise.
