I have a odd situation with what seems to be the floppy drive and the default
save location. First the default folder location for saving is the My
Document folder, so after saving a file to a floppy and closing out Word,
when reopening Word it will not open until a floppy is in the drive (the
floppy drive is continuously searching). Is this by function or some kind of
glitch or setting that can be changed to leave the default folder location to
the My Documents folder regardless of where the file was saved last?

Thanks,
Ronnie

As others, I'm sure, will tell you, you should not be saving directly to a
floppy in the first place, as this is courting disaster. If you insist on
doing so, you must switch the default drive back to the HD before removing
the disk.
