Burning Application to CD-R

Hi,

I want to create two directories on a CD-R.

The first will constin an exe programme.

The second will contain the installed programme files from the above
exe file (installed on CD-R).

I have Roxio Creator Software.

I run under Vista Home Premium, 32 bit.

Please can someone provide guidance.

Thanks

Best wishes

A

Just set up the directories the way you want them,
then just copy that to the compilation window in Roxio.

Thanks for the responses.

The application is portable.

I intend to run the programme from CD-R (to save my hard disk space).
Any data files produced, I'll save to my hardrive.

I get the impression that all I have to do is burn the exe file to the
CD-R (using Roxio), then click on the exe file and let the programme
install itself on the CD-R.

Is this correct

Hi ' other guy'

'Just set up the directories the way you want them,
then just copy that to the compilation window in Roxio.'

Do you mean copy the exe files?

Files is files.

Makes no difference to your CD or DVD burner what find of files.
