I just got a call from someone who has a floppy that went bad. It contains critical data, adn of course they had not backed it up. What are the best tools out there for that sort of thing? If it helps at all, the files are mostly in MSWord. The message from the system is something like "disk damaged" followed by the initialize dialogue. Thanks in advance!!

Any tips from experto on how to recover the data would be greatly appreciated; I havn't had a mac disk crash in 4 years!
