copying files to a floppy

[Guest]

I'm wondering why I get a "%20" between each word in a filename when I copy a file to a floppy. Is there a way to avoid this?

Don,

Typically the %20 is what represents a space in Internet addresses though
I'm not sure why it would appear in a file name on a floppy disk. How are
you copying the files to the floppy? Where are you copying the files from?
What happens when you copy the file from the floppy drive to your desktop?
What does the property page for this file says the file name is? (right
click file and select Properties)

Thanks,

%20 is the code for a space so it depends how you are viewing the
contents of the disk. what ever you are using to display the names is
decoding the space to %20. sometimes you se it in web addresses.
What are you using to view the file list?

hope that helps a bit
