Default breaking passwords on discs containing Word docs

And where is "flash drive" mentioned? It's not. Data can be transferred
from one machine to the other in several ways (direct file transfer using a
cable, burn to CD/DVD, email) that do not require flash drives at all.
Graham brought it into the discussion along with a bogus warning that was
not fully explained.

As others have reminded you - the OP does not have a floppy drive. He
needs a means of getting the data from floppy to his PC. The PC will
almost certainly have a USB port, which makes flash a simple means of
data
transfer, provided he can get access to a floppy drive or can get
someone
copy the floppy discs for him.


It's hard to "remind" someone of something that was never brought up. The


It was "brought up" in OP's message. "No slot on my current computer
for them, but have a friend whose computer does still allow discs."
