Networking 2 computers ???

I have 2 computers sharing an internet connection between a Dl -604 D-link router. The main computer sits right next to the router and DSL modem and runs XP. the other is an older Win98-equipped 'puter located in a bedroom. I am wondering how I can share files between these 2 computers ( only 2, no more to be added). I would like to be able to access files on the main computer from the one ion the bedroom, and use the mains printer from the bedroom 'puter also. How can I do this? I enables file sharing on the Win98 machine but I cannot see it in 'My Computer' on either one. What am I doing wrong here, or is it just not possible for this to worK? I do know basics, but not super-literate on this type of stuff. Any ideas? Thanx in advance
