Hi! I've successfully installed Leopard, Bootcamp and XP in my MBP.

I can easily switch from OSX to XP using system preference unlike before using the beta version of Bootcamp.

However, when I am in XP I don't have any idea as I cannot find any Bootcamp icone to click if I wanted to switch back to Leopard. Is this normal? Or do I need to install something inorder to have this option.

My apologies if this have been answered before.

Use the Startup Disk control panel in Windows.

OR
you can restart windows and hold down the ALT key for the boot loader, from there select OSX or windows,

if you want OSX to be the default OS leave it as the start up drive in the startup disk pref. panel.

With a standard install of XP and drivers from Leopard disc I see a grey small Bootcamp icon in the bottom right of screen.

If you haven't already, boot into Windows and then re-insert your Mac OS X (Leopard) Install DVD. This will install the specific hardware drivers for your Mac into Windows as well as the Boot Camp control panel and ToolBar icon.
