Hi all,

New to this networking thing. Was wondering if I run a
main computer running Xp pro and with some business
software on it,if the other two running Xp home could use
said program and communicate with the main comp.?

Thanks
Mike

Yes, the XP Home computers can communicate with the main computer.

Whether they can use the business program that's installed on the main
computer depends on the program. Some programs allow networked
access, and some don't. Check with the author of the program.
