Copy the files to your hard drive. Don't even think about opening files
on a floppy disk directly with Word. Does this solve your problem? If not,
exactly what error message or error symptoms are you getting?

I'm presuming these are Word (*.doc) files. If not, post back telling what
program created them (the actual program, not just "using a win98 OS").
