Now the first thing to do is to set up a network. The Vista Online Help had a lot of information I did not need because already I have two machines connected to the internet by way of a router. It seems difficult to go through this information and know what I do need to do and what I do not need to do. So here I am. I have found out what the IP address is for the two machines and they are both connected to the same internet connection by way of a router. Now what? How do I make them see each other?
For network, you have to setup using the Network Wizard and define the Workgroup. Both needs to be the same to recognise. Next you will require to share printer in network for the default (the printer that connects to the PC). Once that is done, you will be able to use the other PC for printing.

As for Webcam, it can be done using IP Address. Depending on the webcam that you have, normally there will be instruction for you to setup using IP Address. Read up and follow exactly what the instruction given.
