Pray tell "Why"?................I have personally been working off of
various types of Jump Drives for a couple of years with nary a
problem............I can understand it with Floppies, and I suppose anything
is possible, but I cannot even begin to concieve how working off a
mechanical Hard Drive would be considered more reliable than a solid state
Jump Drive.

A complex technical explanation will suffice.........

Even then, the file should be saved to the hard disk before changing it.

Technically, what you are wanting to do is possible.........however,
Floppy
Disk Drives are mechanical devices and therefore inherently subject to
failure which could result in data loss. You would be much better off
using
one of the new pocket "jump" drives, they hold a LOT more data than a
floppy
disk and are considerably more reliable.

I have a monthly expense I set up in excel. I have to go from office to
office to different computers so if I add in an expense can or will the
update be saved in the floppy or how can I save the changes?
