Hi Phil
Thanks, you've sort of confirmed what I suspected. I'll bear the DVD tip in
mind, but for now I'm a bit hesitant to branch out like that since I don't have
anyone around who could help out to set things up etc. So if I may ask one
further question, I have a whole load of double density discs left over from
the old word processor days. I'm using high density discs at the moment, but
would it be possible to reformat the double density ones to a higher density? I
haven't tried it out because I'm afraid of causing harm, but it does seem a
shame to waste the discs...
Thanks again.
Lynda

Hi Linda,
It sounds like yours is just a player, you will need to buy a CD
player/rewriter, or better still buy a DVD rewriter they play CD's as well, you
then have the best of both worlds, and to use like a floppy all you need to do
is format the disk for Data then you can use it like a floppy but much larger.
Hope that helps.
Phill

I currently use floppy discs to store data, but am wondering if it might be
possible to use blank CDs instead. However, while my computer will play CDs I
don't have the capacity to re-write them, so I know I can't download music or
anything but could I use blank CDs by simply pre-fixing the save function with
d: instead of a:?
Hope this makes sense and that someone knows the answer.
Thanks in advance.
Lynda
