A problem: program always reads from drive A:

I have an application program, available only as a .EXE file, which
always tries to read a data file from the A: drive.  Is there a way to
change this using DEBUG?  I'd like to change this to the C: drive.  This
program is not a commerical program, and is not available in source code
to fix this problem.  Any hints would be welcome.  Because of the users
of the program (real novices) this correction must be made in the
program, not at the DOS level.  Thanks!
