I use a laptop and a tower with a local wireless network at home. Each one
uses XP. I would like to use programs and data from one machine on both. For
example I would like to enter Quicken data into one machine from the other.
XP Home does not allow this. Does XP Pro allow this?

encryption networking options However thsi not does mean that Home is not
secure it just gives u more contol of ur OS

The OS on each workstation is largely irrelevant. I don't believe
Quicken has the capability of functioning in a client/server mode. To
be sure, ask Intuit, Quicken's manufacturer. The same would apply to
any other applications, ask their respective manufacturers how to use
their products in a client/server mode or environment.
