I use Verizon Boradband at work and Comast at home. How can I access my work
MS Outlook from my home computer?

You will have to ask the Network and/or Exchange Administrator if they allow
connections from a home computer first, and if so how it's done.

Many places do not allow connection from a home computer for security
reasons, plus too many users would expect that the home machine then be
supported by network staff.

Most places would issue a laptop that is configured with software to allow
it to connect to the workplace or a handheld such as a Palm, Blackberry, etc.

I am unsure how to do this. It is my own company and it is just my partner
and I in the office. Sometimes I need to work from home, but cannot access my
folders in MS Outlook. Any other advise or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Depending on the security in place on your network, you can try Go To My PC:

It really does depend on your infrastructure and how your network was put
together. If the above doesn't work, you may need to look at a VPN solution.
