I have a 386 machine, with a 40 meg winchester and two floppy drives. Drive a: is a 720K 3 1/2", while drive b: is a 360K 5 1/4". We don't use drive a: much, since most of our floppies are 360K 5 1/4"-ers. I can use ASSIGN in our MS-DOS 4.01 to make the system think drive a: is b:, but this can't work with a lot of programs, including the FORMAT command. Is there a TSR which will let me swap a: and b: for everything? I'm too lazy to open up the CPU, and it's too new to tinker with, just yet. Frank Starr 55srwlgs@sacemnet.af.mil

It's called TAB.COM and simply interchanges drive A: and B:; so after loading it all accesses to A: go to B: and vice-versa. Sorry for only posting the binary, but a don't have any documentation for it.
