extract only PART of an archive



I need to extract JUST ONE of the files in a .deb ....

I've searched through the dpkg info and man pages and haven't found any
way to do this (I might be blind, though).  Is there anyway to do it with
out doing

dpkg -R /tmp/ file.deb

and then moving the one file and clearing /tmp?
