Thanks to all who responded to my message.  I received more help than 
I wanted! :-)

I can't believe that MS did not include a way within standard WIN95 
to copy large files across multiple floppy diskettes.  I wanted to 
use WIN95 because that is what the end-user is familiar with.  I can't 
go to their site (remote from us) and install any software, and I 
don't know if MS Backup is installed on the machine or if the end-user 
knows how to use it.

What the end-user wanted to do was to make copies of some files as of 
fiscal year end (9/30/1998) so they could refer to them later if need 
be.  I told them to either back the files up to the internal tape 
drive (using CMS backup software) or to make a new folder (didn't 
folders use to be directories?) called FY1998 and copy the files 
to there or both.

Anyway, thanks to all who responded.
