On an XP machine, when trying to dopy a .MOV file from anSD card, iot
goes through themotions and then dire with a DOS error. This happens
in both file exporer, draging a copy to C: and in a cmd box. I can CD
to F; and then copy mumble.mov to C.

It's one movie file. Is there a tool or trick to copy as much as
possible and then close the file properly?

Well, I do not know wnay Windows tool for that, but
dd_Rescue under Linux (e.g. on the Knoppix CD-Linux)
is designed to copy files with read-errors in them.

Syntax is

dd_rescue <source> <target>

and you can do things like copy from a position or copy backwards.

Try http://www.infinadyne.com/
Its CD/DVD tool is quite effective and they have added one for SD cards, havent tried the SD card
one tho.

Pretty decent guarantee, no real risk in trying it.
