ello All,

Once upon a time, long long ago, when DOS was King and my life was rodent free, I
could copy an entire directory, with its sub-directories, from the hard drive to
a Zip drive or 3.5 inch disk by using the 'xcopy' command.

However, it does not seem to like my Windows 98a OS. That makes two of us!

Question: How can I copy a directory and all sub-directories from the C:\ drive
to a 3.5 inch diskette or zip drive from the MS DOS window, or a restart in the
MS DOS mode, using the XCOPY command, or some other command,?

Thank you.

I do NOT want to know how for Windows, it must be DOS!
