You most certainly will!
You should never save to or open files from a floppy disc. It is the most
common cause of document corruption.
Copy the files to the hard drive and if necessary try the repair on open
option (little arrow next to the open button in the file open dialog).
If you are lucky you will be able to recover the documents.
