Hello!

I have a friend whose son was hit by an unaware car. After taking care = of
his child (although there were many broken bones, the kid is doing ok), = my
friend took some pictures of the skid marks with his digital camera = which
stores the photos on a 3.5" floppy.

When he looked at them on a Compaq last week, all was fine. He went to =
print them today off a Dell and oops - no go. The file names show up in the
= floppy drive explorer window, but the files are not saveable and will not
open. = It seems that there is no information outside of the filename :(  I
have checked to see if the camera or the original Compaq can read the files,
= but the answer is no. Tapping the floppy disk doesn't help either.

Would anyone have any further suggestions for accessing these files? = Thank
you very much!

The obvious is never obvious until someone tells you.
