The surface
of
a
floppy
disk is similar
to a record. The information
that you store
on the disk is recorded
in circular patterns.
Unlike
a
record,
however, the
patterns are not in place
when
you
first
buy
the disk;
you
must
put them onto the disk before
you can use it.
The
process of preparing
a
disk
to accept data is called
“formatting".
To
format a disk,
select the Floppy Disk
icon to be formatted,
then
select the Format
option from
the File menu, and the first
Format
Box
will
be displayed.
