Thanks for all that sent helps on this. Although none were the program I was looking for, I appreciate your efforts. I just found a copy on an old computer . It is a 1997 program written by J Hollett in Newfoundland , Canada. It was called Cleanfloppy1.1 in .zip form , and it realy works great to clean floppies. Hollett's website is no longer in the net though. This is a great help site, and I learn somthing new , almost every mailing. THANKS again.
