I have a friend that wants to transfer a card game program that's already on one computer to a floppy disk to put on another computer. What are the steps he needs to take?

You can't do it that way. You can't copy programs from a hard drive.
When you install a program it puts entries in the following locations:
C:\Progam Files
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local Settings
C:\Windows\System32
C:\Windows\System32\dllcache
It also puts keys and values in Windows registry.

The requirement is that you need the installation file,or the zip files of the installation file, and it needs to be less then 1.44 MB.
Only a very small percent of programs fits this criteria.
You're best bet is using a small jump drive and copy the installation files to it.
Only very few programs can run straight from a floppy or jump drive.
Soon more programs will be doing that using U3 USB's

I thought floppy disks were almost not used any longer?
