What should I do for PC to PC data transfering?

Question

Two PCs are connected in through network driver (100Mbs). If I works on an Excel file (200kb) in PC1 (which is also in PC2) and want to save these changings in PC2, what should I do
(1) Delete the old file from PC2 and paste updated file form PC1 to PC2 through Networking?
(2) Or copy the file from PC1 and overpaste it on the same file in PC2 through Networking?

Answer 1

As you are using Ethernet, I guess, and if you are using Windows OS do the following:

Setup the network configuration through new NETWORK connection wizard.

select LAN establishment in corresponding location.

After completion restart your systems.

Right click on a folder and go to properties. there choose sharing tab. and give permissions to read and write.

Then you can access two systems from one another by going to My Network places.

There you assign some IP address for your two systems, these should be unique for your two computer.

this is all available in windows help ;-).

Enable application sharing by using whatever software XP uses these days (used to be NetMeeting).

Make sure PC2 can connect to PC1 and both computers can work on the file.
