Now I was trying to connect Msaccess from PC1 using below code.

cnn.Provider = "Microsoft.ACe.OLEDB.12.0"
    cnn.Open "Data Source=\\192.168.0.1\Public\tels.accdb;Persist Security Info=False"

and i was able to connect. However i have broswed that remote folder already on PC1 that time.

But i want to pass PC2 window's User/pass as well in code itself. so that i don't need to open shared folder seaparatly.
Please advice.

Like the post you are mentioning, go to http://www.connectionstrings.com/access-2007
and verify that your connection string is correct:

Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=\\serverName\shareName\folder\myAccess2007file.accdb;

The file should already be setup with the required read/write priviledges for the PC2 account under witch your program will run.
