how to extract two versions of file for comparison

I am trying to get the difference between the latest working version of
a file and a previous version.  I need to use a third party tool to
examine this difference (cvs's diff functionality won't do what I want
here).  I want the newest version to remain in my 'standard' working
directory, and I'd like the old version to be extracted (for reference
only; no edits needed) to another directory, like /temp off of my
working directory.  How can I do this?

Thanks...
