How can I back up all my words files onto disc without
doing it one at a time?

Use Windows Explorer. Go to the folder(s) holding the data and select
them all by clicking on them while holding down:
ctrl - select one at a time
shift - select in blocks.

Then drag and drop to a disk or edit/copy then paste.

Watch how much data you select so as to not over-fill the disk.

read in Windows "help" more about how to use Explorer and how to select
and copy files.

Remember NEVER to try to open these file direct from/to the floppy disk,
or save direct to the disk from Word. If you do, you will surely
corrupt the files and they will unusable.
