Help with floppy disc

[Guest]

This is puzzling me.How do you save a file that is too large for a floppy
disc? Is there a way to save it to multiple floppy discs?

Hi,

there are several programs around to split a file into several pieces which
can be rejoined afterwards.

Among them:

Winzip
ARJ

winrar is my choice, as yo can specify how large to make each archive part.

If it's not much too large for a floppy, compressing it into zip
format may work. Otherwise save it on a hard drive, CD, LS120,
zip drive, jump drive, etc.

Is there a way to save it to multiple floppy discs?

Yes, you can also do that. It's called "spanning." There are many
freeware/shareware programs that let you break up a file into
pieces this way. Do a Google search.

Also most of the well-known zip utilities, such as Winzip, have
this spanning capability.
