Hi Guys:

This is the problem: I have a program that I am including as part of a marketing CD. This program gives the potential client and idea of all the things that can be done with the program and the client’s data.

I have to include a set of sample data files for the program to work properly. The data must be in a specific pair of subdirs, in the following manner:

C:\Tess................will have some files

C:\TeSS\Schools....will have some more files

I have solved the problem by burning my master CD with a generic program from Roxio. But that program does not have the option to create an ISO file. I want to burn a master (ISO) from inside AutoRun but I need to know how those two subdirs will be included as part of the CD

The final subdir structure must look like this

Root
......AutoPlay
............Audio
............Buttons
............Docs
............Images
............Plugins
.....TeSS
............Schools


Help please!

Mario,

You can go to Project -> File Layout and add the folders to the bottom section named 'My Project'. Any folders that you create in here will also be created on the CD-ROM at build time.

I changed things around a bit with respect of where my work subdir’s are in the hard drive. I do not like using the defaults of most any program so I created a structure that looks like this


C:\a-MyAutoRun
……..AutoPay
…………..Audio
……......Buttons………….…All my originals and stuff are in these
…….…….Docs………………..files
……….….Images
…….…….Plugins

…………………………..Your program creates the subdir’s below

......…CD_Root
…………..AutoPay
……………….Audio
……………….Buttons
……………….Docs
……………….Icons
……………….Images
……………….Plugins
……………….Videos
......…Projects
…………..AutoPay
……………….Audio
……………….Buttons…………These are created by your program
……………….Docs…………….these are the subdir’s and files that get
……………….Images………….included in a CD when I create one
……………….Plugins


I looked around (in my C: drive) for Project File Layout My project, and didn’t find it.

So, if what I have is what you see above, where do I put my data subdirs?

Thanks in advance.

Go to Project -> File Layout in the Autorun MAX software to add sub folders to your CD
