Hello, Terry.

You should know what the letter for CD-ROM is, at install time. Personally, I doubt this is possible. And even it would be possible, how do you know where I insert the CD? For example, I have two CD-ROMs. I can insert the cd in any of them, and in this case the shortcut won't work....


I suggest another approach: make the CD autorun. Whenever the user will insert the CD, the app will launch automatically. What do you think?

Thank you
