Default How can I save a file to a floppy disc?

Does this advice apply to a 'thumb drive' when one observes the protocol of
using the Safely Remove Hardware tool each time? So far the gods have been
good to me on that score!
Happy New Year

You can through VBA save directly to a floppy but...................

You should not save directly to a floppy.

You will eventually wind up with a corrupted file.

Save to Hard Drive first then copy to the floppy.

Same goes for opening files from any removable media.
