There is a program called TCOPY that will do the trick.  It can use
either your hard disk or extended memory as the buffer.  You can
fetch it using anonymous/ftp from either of the following locations:

wsmr-simtel20.army.mil		pd1:<msdos.dskutl>tcopy.arc

wuarchive.wustl.edu		mirrors/msdos/dskutl/tcopy.arc

Good Luck!
