Hi Paul
Yes, I have run this code from VB6 and it works, CD Burner has its own form
but as the file I want to burn will always be the same one, I would like to
code in the File name and then run the burn. Possible ?

What the code is doing is moving the selected files to the staging area that is used by the built-in
Windows XP recording mechanism. Essentially you would need to copy your file to this location each
time it is to be burned to a CD. There is code in the sample that returns the path for the current
user profile. No hard coding of a file path is required or necessary.

The following should help explain how the built-in Windows XP mechanism operates:

Hi Paul
I have read the support KB 279157 and is has made thinks clearer, but I am
still stuck can you help further please?
I can load all the code into my program except the following:-
I think a Module called Related Documents :- (SimpleCDBurn6.exe.Manifest)
and again as will not work in my program I suspect there is code contained
within to make the rest of the program run. I have tried to copy this into my
program but todate no luck.

I suspect the manifest file is being used for registration free COM. The manifest file is actually
an XML file and not a binary. It should have the same name as your EXE, but I don't think you need
to change the contents.

Just make certain to add the same references (Project...References) and components
(Project...Components) in the SimpleCDBurn project to your own project.

If you're getting any errors or are still having some problems you may want to be a bit more
specific (e.g. error messages, etc.).
