I have a question about Windows XP -not altering the floppys but altering the file
name of the floppy. I have several files that relate to keeping track of household
info that I feel a need to track! For example one of these is a spreadsheet called
"Credit Card". As may be obvious I keep my credit card charges in the file. I back
it up on 3.5 floppies. I am using Win XP Home edition and Office 97. When I update
the file once a week I save it to the hard drive and then back it up on a floppy,
using the "Save As" command. When I do this the computer changes the name of the
file to "C.xls. Can anyone tell me why this happens and how to fix it?
