The easiest way to do this is to use a directory sorting utility to
make the files sorted alphabetically on the disk in the first place.
One example is DS (DiskSort) from the Norton Utilities.  Then you'd
just use:
	DS NE A:        ; Sort disk A: by Name and Extension
	COPY A:*.* B:   ; Copy the files, now in sorted order
You can get the Norton Utilities for about $50 mail order; check PC
Magazine for ads.  Other utilities, undoubtedly including some in the
public domain, would work just as well.
