How did you save the text onto the floppy? As "Web page (complete)" or as a
Word document or what? Have you tried copying it to your HD before trying to open? -- Suzanne S.

Never ever read from, write to or print from floppy with Word. This is the
most certain method of ensuring document corruption. Copy to the hard disc and work on the document from there. This is equally relevant to other removable media such as CDRW. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org georgina wrote: I saved text from a web page onto a floppy disk but when I went to open these files I could not read the text. could someone please tell me how to convert the text back so that I can I actually read it?
