Uhhhhhh....

Well, it kind of depends upon what kind of files she wishes to copy.  If
the files are basic files then she can simply load and save them.  If it
is a whole disk she wishes to copy, then there is a program on the DOS 3.3
disk called FID(I THINK it is called that).  If the system is ProDos, then
there is the file tools diskette.

But if you want to be able to copy files easily you really need to get
something like ProSel, Copy ][+, or one of the other file utility type
pieces of software.  ProSel(PROSEL/ProSEL/proSEL/However you want to
write it ;) ) is my favorite.
