Quoting John Heinen :

I have on one of my hard drives windows xp and several versions of linux such as ubuntu, mint etc, is it possible, for example, decrease the linux partition and increase the windows part?

Generally yes. But pick a partitioner that upfront says it can do the particular filesystems involved and then Google it to check out the program's reputation and people's experience. Until a year or two ago, the linux support for writing NTFS was considered beta quality and often not enabled by default. This has changed recently, so be sure you have a recent version if NTFS is involved. Most of the FAT flavors are well supported. If you need to do this several times and mistakes cost real money, consider a commercial product.
