If the disc is corrupt you will not be able to access it with Explorer.

You might try opening explorer, drag the file over to your desktop,
and then try opening it.

Good Luck

You probably can't get the information off it. File recovery tools
such as OnTrack's Easy recovery Pro may help, but essentially the
disc is corrupt. This is a frequent experience of those who open and
save Word documents directly to floppy. Always open and save via the
hard drive and copy to floppy.

I was using word last night and saved on a disk. Now I can't bring
up the info from the disk. I get an error message that the disk has
not been formatting or has been formatted for macintosh. Then the
next message I get says that it does not recongize disk media. I
have used this disk before with no problems.
