John MacLean wrote a program called DOS 3.3 Launcher which will run DOS 
3.3 programs from a hard disk or 3.5" floppies.  As of version 2.2 of DOS 
Launcher the program is "Freeware".  According to the Read.me file that 
came with it, Andrew Roughan is currently maintaining the source code.  
The file lists his email address as:

posty@triode.apana.org.au

I don't know if the address is still good, give it a try.  I downloaded 
the DOS 3.3 Launcher from Genie a couple of years ago, it should still be 
there.  You might also try Delphi, or any of the FTP sites (Asimov, 
Ground, etc.).  The program requires that you copy the 5.25 disks to 
images, so Copy protected software will not work, deprotected 
software will though.
