Copying and
Large
Sometimes a hard disk file is too Largs to fit on one
floppy
diskette
i-o-
this reason, I HSDOS nas a utility caned HDCOPY4VBAS that
transfers
a
large
hard
disk
file
onto
several
Floppy
diskettes.
Copying a File with HDCOFY4
Before
copying
a
hand
disk
file,
be
sure
that you
have
enough mite-
enabled, THODOG-formatted diskettes
to
receive the
file,

is a
good
idea
to have
one
extra,
in
case
one is flawed.}
See
Chapter 5
for
information
on
calculating
ihe
number of
diskettes you
neec.
Afler formatting
the
diskettes,
you can run the HDC0PY4 utility,
