(Hopefully >shareware/freewhere, and whre to get it) the error -71 is a couldn't find data mark header error, at least in sys 7.01. You might try copying the files one at time, but I bet that if you then copied them back to a floppy, they'd look to see if the disk was right, and bomb... Copy II Mac with the MacTools package is supposed to deal with this kind of thing to permit backup of any floppy.... Peter bell@minerva.cis.yale.edu
