I HAVE MY RESUME ALREADY TYPE UP I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
IF THERE IS A PROCESS TO TRANSFER THE IMFORMATION TO A
FLOPPY DISK WITHOUT HAVING TO RETYPE THE WHOLE THING.
 
Floppies are a bad idea these days. Your next computer may not have a floppy
drive. Pick up a cheap USB flash drive and use that instead. Follow
Suzanne's instructions except you will substitute the drive letter of the
flash drive for the floppy drive.

As the other have said, don't rely on a floppy disk.

The 3½" floppy technology is 26-years old and its origins, the 8" floppy is
37 years old. Always copy data to and from the floppy from your local hard
disk. As a storage medium: don't trust it. A USB flash memory stick is great
for moving files around, but again, don't rely on it for storage.
 
Of course, paper technology is at least 5000 years old and it hasn't
become completely outdated yet. :-)

Yeah, but it's been improved & made more reliable, convenient, etc. over
those 5000 years - which sure can't be said for the good ol' floppy since
the 3.5 came along... Unless you want to throw Iomega Zips into the mix:-)

Unfortunately with paper technology you can't carry around a filing
cabinet's worth in your pocket.....;-)
