    hi,

    i did try emailing megatron but you didn't reply,

    do any of you know a way of accessing the ar artist name and track names off of a music cd with cd text on it, then putting all of this information into a text box or file in the similar format as cdplayer.ini in windows

    i am VERY grateful for any help in any form

    Cheers

    Merlin ?

    p.s. the person that i am weriting this program for doesn't want to use CDDB becasue they don't have a modem (sorry)

    Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.

    might wanna look into how other programs use the cd data base (cddb.com)
    Generic vb 5

    Private Sub WakeMyAssUp( As Boolean)
    If Then : = False
    End Sub

    What, the CD itself has the track / artist info on it?

    Cool feature. I might have a look into that - seems interesting.

    How do you do that..via code or just via your cdCreation program?

    hi yeah all of this is done through the cd creator, there is a tick box that you check and you put the names in so when you put the cd in your computer it automatically puts in the information or if you have an expensive stereo this feature is part of the cd player

    Cheers
