My application in VB 6.0 gives me the error.The application reads data in access table on a CD-ROM.Error occurs only on Windows 98.
Error message is as follows
"Error reading CD-ROM in drive D:
Please insert CD-ROM
With serial number # in drive D:
If the CD-ROM is still in the drive it may require cleaning
Press Enter for Ok or Esc to cancel :Ok"
Anybody has any info on this.???
Hi,
I think some other application use the CDDrive for different CDRom.
In that case you must press ESC key to terminate the error screen and then try to access the datas through Explorer in the CDRom Drive.
If it is not working Try to access the datas in Dos Prompt (E:\>_)

When I get this error and press Esc my application still continues.My application has to directly access the data from the CD.It's something like this-The user selects a date range and some conditions.The data for this is available in the CD as MSAccess tables.So a query is issued on this table and data obtained.If for the specified date range data is spanning multiple CD's then user is prompted to insert the corresponding CD and output obtained.The error occurs at this stage ie.when I am removing one CD and inserting the next one.
No other application is using CD at that stage.The access tables are directly read from the CD.It's not accessing the CD drive from explorer or DOS prompt.
Thanks for your response.
