Any suggestions on programs to use for data recovery. More specifically im looking to save a few 3.5 floppies

how much "data" are we talking about? the first thing that comes to my mind would be to use winzip to compress it and span the data across the floppies

There are companies out there that can recover lost data, but it is really exspensive from what I have heard. I guess it comes down to how important the data was to ya.
