My grades are at stake.

[Wei Wu Wei]

See what had happened was, I'm at work right now and I have this freaking huge report all typed up. Deal is, I need to save it to a disk. This report is 2,130 KB. I can't save it onto a 3 1/2 inch disk, there is no zip drive, and this computer does not burn CDs. How can I get this thing to where I can save it?

The report is basically finished, but it's a group thing, so my partners have to see it too, and I won't see them until maybe 11pm. It's 8:23 right now where I am.

Winzip? E-mail it somewhere that has a CD writer?



What about seperating it? YOu could take it to who wants to see it, and paste the pieces back together.

[Zeke]

You can email it to me using your school account. That way it'll be in the "sent messages" folder on your computer. If not, I can send it back, and we both have a copy of it. Just make sure you send it to the school account, not the yahoo one.

[Wei Wu Wei]

Sure. Thanks you guys.

[Zeke]

No big. :) Just be sure to lemme know when its sent. I don't check the email very often anymore.

[Wei Wu Wei]

Um, actually, the thingy didn't send. It was too big. I'm printing it now. I just hope none of my group members wants to rewrite any of it. ^_^;

Winzip works wonders on all text type files; Word, Wordperfect, etc...

[Zeke]

No big, too big...well...at least we've figured out how to transport this thing. Hey, if one of 'em wants it re-written, make that guy do it. :D

[Wei Wu Wei]

They're both girls.

Oh, and it seems this computer doesn't have WinZip either.

EDIT: I chopped it up into pieces. It now resides on two disks. This will be fun to put back together, believe you me.

[AmazonBabe]

Fett's idea of splitting it into two parts was a sound one. That way you wouldn't have to retype it.

Just save one half of the paper as <filename>01 and save that onto one floppy, and the second half name <filename>02 and save that onto another floppy.

[Wei Wu Wei]

Here is the final result

Parts 1, 3, and 2d are on one disk

Parts 2a, 2b, and 2c are on the other disk. how incredibly odd.

[Figrin D'an]

You could always pull out the hard drive and remount it into a different computer temporarily. :)

But, yea... splitting the file should work... you'll likely have to reset all of the formatting, depending upon how you saved it.

[Wei Wu Wei]

I surely hope not. I like the idea about the hard drive, but I have not enough know-how nor enough time before my supervisor would come out and kill me. I'm off work, btw. Now am at computer lab.
