Heh. I think the pickle explained it more clearly, but I'll try again. 1. Get Stuffit or Compact Pro. 2. Set preferences to save in segments of 1.2MB (to be safe; and assuming you're using 1.3MB/1.4MB floppies) - note that you don't *have* to compress anything; it'll just save you some floppies if you do. 3. Select file 4. Save to disk(s) You'll be promted to insert floppies until it's all done. 5. Insert 1st floppie in other computer and expand the file onto the other drive. You'll be prompted to insert the appropriate floppies until it's all done. **Keep them in order** unless they're clearly labelled. Again, the size of the file wil give you a good indication of the best /most efficient method fo rthe transfer. So how big is it? You might not want to do this with a 20MB file...;-) Non Illegitimi Carborundum -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
