Very quick answer, so forgive any errors... If you run "enhance" (desktop/enhance?), you get the "slit" in the bottom right hand corner. In the slit, down the bottom, there is an app for "mounting" your other partitions / drives - you need to mount things before you can access them. Just use the arrows till the drive / partition you want shows up (eg. hda3), then there's a little button button beside the arrows (well, somewhere there, I'm not in DSL at the moment) that will light up green when you click it (orange when it's still trying to mount). Once it's green, that drive is mounted.
Now, in whatever app you want to use, you should see the files on the mounted drive by going to "/mnt/(drive name)" - eg "/mnt/hda3"
So, say a text file is on your windows "C" drive, under the directory "docs" (c:\\docs\file.txt), under linux C drive may be something like hda3, so you mount this drive (trial and error to found out which drive is which), then go to "/mnt/hda3/docs/file.txt"
Hopefully there was enough cognitive thought in there for you to follow! ; )
