ipaq 5450 internet PROBLEMS?

HI FOLKS,

I have a ipaq 5450 and i am looking to connect it to the internet via my bluetooth dongle and desktop pc.
I am able to establish a PARTNERSHIP between the ipaq and the desktop pc but connecting the ipaq to the internet seems to be the tricky part!!!
The thing is i am not really sure how to set up an internet sharing connection in my network setup wizard ( win XP ).
This is where things start to get a wee bit confusing for me.

Im sure its probably a simple procedure. Basically all i want to do is connect my ipaq 5450 via my bluetooth dongle to the desktop pc through my adsl modem to get my pda online.
( i.e sharing the internet connection)

Any help at all would be excellent

Thanks again.
