Hi again all

More thanks to Tinstaafl - I had vaguely recalled something about parallel port connection so now I know I would need a two-ended cable! My lappie has PCMCIA ... 'tis that ancient !!

Thanks too shack for wanting to help!!

BOAC - 'tis gonna be all OK as dwhcomputers has confirmed that a floppy drive is on its way to me by Royal Mail. This is perfect timing as I have to get another form completed/returned by the end of the week

Things that in normal life one would take in stride find someone with parky bo11ox often reduced either to tears or to major tremor and feeling even more out of control.

To realise that one's proon chums can come to one's aid both in spirit and practically is of immense value! Y'all will never know how much!

Many thanks -- its unlikely I know but if I can ever be of help back, never hesitate to ask!
