Anyone have an example in VB that will allow the user to select files from Windows Explorer and then burn all those files to a CD/DVD?

If you search this forum or look at the nerofiddles example you will find examples of how to burn files to CD/DVD.

You then need to merely find how to select files - you can either use the technique in nerofiddles to add files or use a filelistbox to select files - pass them to the routines you just found.

I have figured out how to add the files to the listbox...but I can't get the listbox to send the files to burn.

I get overrun errors when trying to burn the disc.

It will put the volume Lable on the disc, but no files.

Thank you for your post, I will search some more...but I've came up empty so far.

How do you mean "can't get the listbox to send the files to burn"

Use a filelistbox control and simply read the selected files in your code.

Set the multiselect property to 2 to allow extended multiple selection or to 1 for simple multi-selection

i.e.


For I = 0 To List1.ListCount - 1
If List1.Selected(I) Then
' Add List1.List(I) to folder to be burnt, use drivelistbox &
' dirlistbox to get the path
End If
Next I

What command do I need to use to burn the files from the list box?
