Pam,
Nobody else mentioned this, so I will. If you have a modem on your laptop, you can
just email the data to yourself. Many ISPs allow you more than one email addresses, but if
you have only onem sens the sqz file as an attachment to an email addressed to yourself.
As soon as the message is sent, turn off your mail program. Wait a while and turn on the
mail program in the other computer. (I figured this out when my floppy drive was down. No
when I am on a trip, I email backups to my desktop every day or so. The if my laptop is
stolen or breaks, I have the data.
