I have two questions:
1) How can you tell from within hypercard if a certain disk is inserted
into the drive?
2) How can you print a microsoft word 4.0 document from within hypercard
using a word 4.0 located on a server

I am trying to create a catalog of images and I have the images on several
disks.  During the use of the hypercard the user is prompted to insert a
certain disk number.  I need to determine if the right disk is in the drive 
and ready to use.  As far as Word 4.0 goes, I need to be able to print the
document and come back to my stack and card without the user of the stack
having to do anything.
