copy all data content from disk

I have to copy a lot of 3,5 disks...... Now I know it is possible to use the ctrl-button to select all the files to be copied or use copy *.* c:\map in ms- dos.

Does anybody know if either of the windows 3.11/95/98 or 2000 versions allow to easily copy all data content from a:
by e.g." clicking and dragging" the a: icon in Windows explorer/File manager(3.11) or My Computer to the desired c:\map ??

Thanx for your reply!!

Here is a little .bat file I made for you that can be used as a basis for copying your floppies to a hard drive - I am sure that other members will improve it for you. You can edit it to suit your needs.
Click and hold down your left mouse button and move the cursor across the lines below (in between the dotted lines)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@echo off
if "%1 "==" " goto End0
echo ** This will save the contents of Floppy A: to Folder on C: that you specified **
echo ** Example : FloppyTo A1234567 , will make a Folder C:\A1234567 and copy the **
echo ** contents of A:\ to this folder **
CD c:\
MD C:\ "%1 "
CD c:\ "%1 "
copy A:\*.* C:\ "%1 "
echo ** Files copied OK. **
:End
Exit
: End0:
Echo ** Invalid destination Folder

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right click and click Copy
Post the lines into Notepad and save the file as C:\FloppyTo.bat
You can run FloppyTo using the Start Button/Run
example FloppyTo NewFloppy01
or run it from a Shortcut on your desktop and so on.
I have tested it and it works OK.
