Does your Floppy window not have an entry called
"MSDOS Disk Write"?
That's what you use. It will not allow you to
overwrite files that are already there, however,
which is something of an inconvenience if you
are trying to update a file - esp since you have
no way of removing the file from the diskette
short of reformatting the diskette. That I know
of, anyway.
