I am a novice programmer to Windows, so I hope someone can point me in the
right direction.

I need to write an installation program for a Windows program that already
exists.  Because I want to install the program's icon under Program Manager,
I have elected to make the installation program, itself, a Windows program
(as opposed to a DOS installation program).  As I see it, the first step I
need to overcome is to programmatically copy a file from a floppy drive to the
hard disk.  Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how I may begin?

-Thanks-
