NETWORKIN/DIAL UP

MY HUBBY GOT ME A LAPTOP FOR XMAS. I WOULD LIKE TO ACCESS MY WORK COMPUTER
WITH IT. CAN'T I SOMEHOW ACCESS DIRECTLY THROUGH A DIAL UP CONNECTION???
WHERE CAN I GET INFO AND READING MATERIAL ON THIS??? OR WHAT READING MATERIAL
WOULD YOU RECOMMEND???

Remote Desktop is what you want, if your work network allows it.
Some Corporate setups allow for a VPN or Virtual Private Network
type of connection. Do a Google search for Remote Desktop or VPN.
You'll find lots of useful info.

P.S. Typing in all Capital Letters is considered shouting and hurts the
eyes of folks willing to help.
