Paul,
What I mean. For static data, you might want to point to CD itself, for others you might want to use UNC paths which would be considered after installation. My projects on CD generally used static data (images) on CD so I had to create routines, that would find CDROM letter after installation and set path to there. Apart from this, it's straight forward as diskette installations. Sorry for confusing.
