NameVirtualHost at Apache

Fore quite a while I am trying to set Apache server to use domain names instead of IP addresses.
1) At my local (home) computer I have two Apache servers (1.3.28 and 2.0.47) and they work just fine.
2) OS Windows XP
3) I can’t set <NameVirtualHost> in httpd.conf file
4) When I try to get www.something.home IE can’t find it, but when I use IP address for example 127.10.10.1 I am gating home directory of www.something.home
5) I use Apache servers just to test my PHP and MySql scripts.

Question:
Is it possible to force Apache to use DNS at local computer (localhost)? How?

Thank you and best regards,
Miroslav

In notepad open this file:
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

In the first column add an IP address.
In the second column add the cooresponding domain name.

Poor man's local DNS
