Error Message

[Marshall]

I saved a Excell file to a floppy disk (the only place in
where the file was saved). Now when I try to open the
file I get an error message: "File Name" cannot be
accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be
trying to access a read-only locaton. Or, the server the
document is stored on may not be responding.

Can someone give me a suggestion?

Thank you.

Pray that this file is not important

Try to copy the file from the floppy to the HD, if you can, you can open it in
excel. If you cannot, get ready to recreate

Marshall,

You should never write directly to a floppy disk, it is asking for trouble.

See this MS item as to why
