    Hello Sammy, you could use a disk spanning utility like this one to span the file across multiple disks. HTH

    Winzip can compress (so it may fit on just one disk) and span across floppies. Available from http://www.winzip.com

    Yes you can use Winzip 9. From memory (so it could be wrong) here's what to do after you've installed WInzip.

    1. Find the file you want to put on multiple floppies,
    2. Right click on it and choose "Add to Zip..."
    3. In the Winzip dialog box you get put the file name to be something like a:\myfile.zip and put a tick in the "span disks" check box.
    4. Click OK and swap disks when asked
