That's pretty hot, marbux.  They have a product called wordPort that's
WAY less expensive than what it cost me to get six Brother floppies
converted to word format.

S'pose, if I was willing to spellcheck after the conversion, this
product would technically be free...

The interesting part for me is how this software can trick my machine
into reading a single-density Brother-formatted floppy disk in a HD
floppy drive.


You may have to hit the computer fair and look for an old drive, then jury
rig something to get it to work with a newer machine. I remember lots of
problems over the years in getting newer floppy drives to read floppies
generated with older drives.


Have yet to dive into your other links--but the first hit was promising.

Thanx heaps, for your help,

No problemo. I was in the mood to work on someone else's problems for a bit.
