If you right-click on a file, one of the options on the popup menu is Send To. Holding your cursor over this entry pops up another menu that shows where you can 'send' that file 'to'. After the standard install of Windows 9x, your options here are usually your floppy drive(s), and maybe a fax modem.
Many people are unaware of how easy it is to change this Send To menu!
If you open Explorer, and select your Windows folder, you'll see that there is a sub-folder named 'Send To'. Inside this folder are all the current options in your Send To menu; namely, your floppy drives.
To add something to your Send To menu, just do exactly what you'd do to add an item to your Startup menu - either drag a program to this folder, or right-click and select new/shortcut.
For example, I've added a shortcut to Notepad in my 'Send To' folder. Now, when I right-click on a file and hold my cursor over the Send To option, I can send that file to either of my floppy drives or to Notepad. If I select Notepad, then Notepad starts up and displays that file immediately.
