to copy a particular file in the A drive to a particular directory in C drive;

Copy A:\filename.EXT C:\directory

This copies all the files and directories to a directory on the C: drive. Empty directories are not copied:

Xcopy a:\*.* c:\directory /s

For help in DOS 6.XX type
copy /?

or just type HELP
