What are the steps to access the Web from my laptop which is connected via
BT to my home desktop and its cable modem? I have the Network Access in XP
on both
machines connected, however, I cannot get IE to access the internet.

You have to use the LAP (LAN Access) service or PAN (Personal Area Network).
Make sure to configure the DNS servers on the host computer. Have a look in
our Bluetooth Guides for some tips and hints. Have a read on this guide:

Thanks, I followed your guide, however, then I lost access to the Internet
from my host (desktop) and had to go back to autoconfig IPs.
Thoughts?

Your configuration is probably already using the 192.168.0.1 address
somewhere (in the routers, DSL modem, other NIC). Double-check that!
