Using Two 5.25-Inch Floppy Drives
If you have two 5.25-inch 360K floppy disk drives and no hard disk because there is no room for DOS on your working copy, you will have to insert your DOS disk in Drive A to start your computer, then replace the DOS disk with your working copy to start Works. Unless Works asks you to switch disks, you should keep the working copy in Drive A and save your data files to a data disk in Drive B.
To save a new file for the first time, do the following:
- Choose File Save.
- If Drive B is not already the current drive, select Drive B in the Directories list box and press ENTER.
- In the Save File As box, type a name for your file.
- Choose OK (ENTER).
To open a file, do the following:
- Choose File Open.
- If Drive B is not already the current drive, select Drive B in the Directories list box and press ENTER.
- In the Files box, select the file you want to open.
- Choose OK (ENTER).
As you use Works, you might create more data files than will fit on a single data disk. You can work with as many as eight different data files from different data disks at the same time.
To open a file from a different disk, do the following:
- Choose File Open.
- Insert in Drive B the data disk containing the file you want to open.
- Press ENTER.
- In the Files box, select the file from the updated list.
- Choose OK (ENTER).
- Switch disks as requested.
