Setting up a Wireless Home Network with 3 PCs?

I want to set up a network between the three computers we have- two of which use Vista, the other uses XP. One of the Vista machines has a wired connection, the other two are wireless.

What I want is to be able to share data between all three machines without having to use network cables. We have a Belkin wireless router and have wireless internet access for the two wireless machines. Is it possible to get all three machines connected to each other wirelessly?

Update:

Thanks guys, unfortunately I am either being a complete novice, or the computers aren't playing ball- I've turned on all the settings under the Network and Sharing Center on both the Vista PCs but they still can't see each other, whilst I'm having trouble even finding such a thing on the XP PC- help!

Update 2:

Another issue- whenever the two wireless machines try to access the wired PC, they get prompted for a password- I've tried the username and password of the admin account of that PC but it doesn't work- as far as I know, there is no password, but they still can't access the wired PC. They can SEE it, but that's it. Also, when the wired PC and the XP PC try to access the wireless Vista PC, it prompts to check the spelling of the name of the PC, but I'm certain that's correct.

    It is possible to have all three machines connected wirelessly, although wired connections are more secure, so if your router is sitting on the same desk as one of your computers, it makes just as much sense to have it wired!

    To share information between the three, you simply need to go to the Control Panel on each one, and change the File Sharing option on each one so that you can openly share files with the other computers on your network. (If you can't find this, simply do a search. Especially on Vista, it's super-convenient.)

    Good luck!

    Sure it is. Just switch on file and printer sharing on all the PCs and then switch on sharing for the folders that you want to share. You give each PC a network name name.

    Then you can view the files. Supposing your PC is called Raleigh. You would go to the shared folders on raleigh by putting

    \\Raleigh

    into an Explorer window.
