Default moving files from PC to MAC OS7

since my mac laptop doenst have interenet, i am trying to put things on it via Floppy. for example, some pics, solitaire. but when i click "run" on the mac, it comes up with a thing saying it could not open it because the app "PC" could not be found. is there some way to copy programs onto floppy in the MAC format so it will be abel to run?

I'm not too sure what version of Mac OS your laptop has but if you look in control panel there may be something called 'PC Exchange' which will allow you to use DOS formatted floppies.

Also this is pretty obvious, when you say solitaire, I'm assuming it's a mac version? as windows and mac executables are different.
