Diskdupe allows you to do this also. I'm sure I downloaded it from Simtel or one of it's mirror sites. The program is fairly nice, but the user interface requires you to enter stuff that the program should really be able to guess. But it's not that bad. But that's not what made me dump it. It's shareware - with a registation price of $79 or something like that. I'm sorry, but $79 for a program that just copies floppies is a bit steep - no matter how well it copies those floppies. There's even a "professional" version that goes for $150 or some other ridiculous price. Dave Haertig haertig@att.com
