Hi Carcione,
Use Windows Explorer to copy the files to the hard disk and then open them
with Word from that location. Do NOT try and open them on the floppy.
Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.
Hope this helps
