Since technically it is possible to open an Excel File, from wherever, and
change it, and actually save that changed file to a Floppy Disk...........,
the correct answer to the *literal*, verbatim subject line of this thread is
actually YES!!!

Whether it "should" be done that way or not, is a matter of personal
opinion.

I really think that the *literal*, verbatim subject line of this thread

must
be answered as a *NO*.

You *save* to the HD.
You then *copy* to the floppy (hey!, that rhymes<g), using Windows
Explorer!

Although for years I've actually calculated and revised WBs *on* a Zip
drive, but I don't consider Zips as a floppy.
And then again, *always* making sure that the Zip capacity was at least
double the size of the WB.

There's nothing wrong with taking a file on a floppy from location to
location. You just need to make sure that when you edit it, it's been

copied
to the target computer, not just on your portable media.

(I'll bet you never expected *this* kind of response to what seemed like
such a simple question, did you?)
