Hello Naomi: If you're asking about putting files onto a floppy that are just a little bit bigger than can be stored on a floppy, PC Magazine once had a utility called "Slice32" that would span any number of floppies for a bigger than normal file. It even included the decompressor with the spanned files so that the files could be given to someone without "Slice32". It should still be available at their site "PCMag.com". If you're talking about LARGE files, then you should consider a ZIP drive or something similar. Hope this helps you. MJD On Friday, January 17, 2003 at 11:30 am, Naomi Butler wrote:

Hello again, Naomi: Slice32 is still available from the folks at PCMag. Here is where you can download a copy from: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,26388,00.asp I hope this is what you're looking for. Good Luck. MJD

hi, you can just use the utility callled 1toX to cut the file into smaller pieces and store the the floppy disks . Then use that program again to weld those pieces together
