Re: Burning a CD-R

Okay Ted looking better all the time.

Now, if you have the time, can you tell me which way to go with this CD
burning project? I have no desire to 'cut' a CD with my personal data on it
for public consumption. If you have a minute, here is what takes place:

After inserting a fresh CD in the burner I select the file I want to put on
the CD by right clicking. This gives me the 13 options, normal for XP, at
which time I select the 'Send to' option that takes me down a list of 8 to a
CD icon. I click on this icon and things start happening. Eventually the CD
Burn Wizzard take over and the rest is history. However, when I reinsert the
CD and read it what is displayed on the monitor is a blue and white window
titled 'My Computer' containing two columns. The column on the right
contains the file I selected to be added to the CD. The column on the left
has three subtitles: 'System Tasts,' 'Other Places' which contains 'My
Documents' and all my personal files, and 'Details' which is the current item
selected for viewing, I guess. So how did I manage to include all this data
on the CD when all I did was click on a SINGLE file?
