Depending on what version of Windows you're using, you may be able to select the files in Windows Explorer (a.k.a. "My Computer" or just "Computer"), right-click, and choose Send To Compressed Folder. If that isn't available in your version of Windows, get a program such as WinZip or one of the free public-domain zip programs (check Google to find one). After the zip file is created, copy it to the other drive (or, depending on the method you're using, you may be able to create the zip file directly on a flash drive; but that won't work with a CD). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
