The document I want to copy to a floppy is a simple letter, maybe 3 or 4 Kbytes. I used the word "send" rather than copy to replicate the command I am offered when I right-click on the file name as it is listed in My Documents. When I right-click, one of the options given me is to "Send To" four or five possible places. The one I choose is the D drive where my floppy is waiting. It works fine for any Word file or Spreadsheet file, but it will not accept the text file that I prepared with OpenOffice 3. Are you able to copy your text files to a floppy? If so, what commands do you use?
