I have a windows xp home machine(A) and a windows pro
machine(B). I have setup home netweoking on both the
computers. They can look at each other, ping each other
successfuly. I have created shareon both the machines and
the machine A (XP Home) can access the share folders of
Machine B (XP PRO), but the vice-versa is not true.
Machine B cannot access the share folder on Machine A.
Another problem which i noticed is that If I am logged on
Machine A and click it's Own share folder. It gives the
following error message. "Not enough server storgae to
process the command." It is the same message I get from
Machine B trying to access Machine A. I checked all the
connections (TCP/IP, File share Networks..)

I get the same message when I changed my computer name. I
hope that we can find out the problem.

Looking at the messages here, it seems to me that every time an
application accesses a SQLCE database, it needs to do so in exclusive
mode.

Is there any way around this? Is there a way for the file to be opened
in shared mode?

In the scenario I'm working within, we have an existing application from
which I need to read a small amount of data. it's likely thatr this
application will be running concurrentll with the one I'm writing.
Unfortunately, I have no access to the source for that application, and
any changes to it are completely out of the question.

Reading that application's data is not a problem, provided that the
application is not running. If it is running, the I expect that I'm
going to need to trap the error and warn the users accordingly, but I
would rather that the two applications simply play nicely together.

Am I living in a dream world?

In SQL CE 2.0 a database file is always opened in exclusive mode. IMHO I
don't think there is any workaround for your scenario given that you don't
have access to the app's source code. If you had access then you could have
controlled access to the DB file through some shared memory mechanism.
