I triedthat --no worky...you have to erase the cd/rw and THEN put BACK what you edited elsewhere. ----- Original Message ----- From: cris To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2004 6:57 AM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Read only files I don't think you can edit - even on a cd/rw. I think what you have to do is to edit on your computer - then re-burn it onto the cd/rw. but I've never used the cd/rw's.

These are files I put on a CD, family tree info that I put on myself. The CD is a CD/RW CD. I do use a program for some of the info but not all. cristy To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
