I have many Word documents on diskettes. I need a document summary list for
each diskette telling me the disk contents and when they were last modified.
This is a files management function that was possible with earlier versions
of Microsoft Word.
Thank you.

AFAIK, this feature has never been available in Word (though perhaps in
WordPerfect). But see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/PrintDocList.htm and
the Printfolders utility at http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm

There is a Cataloger utility that you might find helpful. See
http://www.mousetrax.com/Downloads.html I particularly like the File
Cataloger, but have also used the Directory Cataloger. They each will
create a Word document with hyperlinks to your files so you can use it
as an on-line Table of Contents as well as printing it out.

In addition to the information others have provided - never ever read from,
write to, or print from floppy with Word. These are the most certain methods
of ensuring document corruption.

Copy to the hard disc and work on the document from there.
