write to cd

Solved!
Go to solution

Anyone have any example code on how to burn (using Labview 2012) a whole directory of  *.txt files to a CD automatically...

I'm trying to avoid having the user select the whole directory, drag the files into the burning cd's application window, then clicking "burn", then "finished".  I'd like to have them click an exe file and it would do it automatically.

 

Thanks..

It's not something I've ever tried to do before - but I would expect that you may be able to do this with .NET/DLL calls ("IMAPI 2.0" seems to be the API that allows you to do this) or with a command-line CD burning utility and System Exec.
