If a CD has to be written by taking the files from different folders, how it can be done?
There is virtually no programming language can accomplish this. You'd need a CD burner for this ...
No...I am using a Cd writing software here, just want to write a script that will take files from different folders and write them to CD using the CD writing software.
Check ICDBurn interface in MSDN.
this works in WinXP only..
This ICDBurn works fine with xp, but if a certain software has to written in cd, the developer must not have the compulsion of using winxp. So, is there any other software that is generic atleast for all versions of windows known? Help Needed !
To me this just seems vague. Any software can burn a CD using files from various folders. Do you want this to just grab specific files? Do you want it to be hands free? I am confused.Quote:

ICDBurn writes all the files in the sBurnFolder. I want only some files to be written from a folder.
If I could see any point, I would research this for you. However, since I don't know why this can't be done manually, since you are still being vague as aforementioned, I can't comprehend what you are really looking for.
Basically are you saying you want a CD without folders on it just files?????????
Let me explain the procedure by an example.
There is a folder on harddisk namely "Files". It has 4 files
file1, file2, file3, file4
On cd1 file1 is to be written
On cd2 file2 is to be written
and so on....
The above process is to be automated. Any CD Burner software can be used.
Hope i am able to communicate the problem now..:)
Look at mkisofs on Unix or w/ Cygwin. It allows you to create an ISO from a given directory with all the assorted options. You can simply use whatever language you want to copy the files to a given folder (or set of folders), then run the mkisofs utility to create the iso. Then use whatever burning utility you want to make the CD.
