A file utility program to copy a Certain Part of a file ?

| In Win XP, Does anybody know of a utility program that will copy only a
Designated Part of a file?
There are already programs, like the iHex hex editor, that will reduce
the size of a file, but it truncates the file from the END of the file.
I need a program that truncates a file at some other designated spot.
Like, in a 100 Kb file that has internal addresses from 0 to 100,000, I
want to delete the bytes from 15,000 to 25,000, creating a 90 Kb file.
Actually, the file I need to reduce is 2 Gb, but,... Does such a
program exist?
Thanks very much, Gurus.
