Burning stuff on CD is not dependant on the medium it's on.
If you burn something that's on floppydisk, or on your harddisk, that doesn't matter.

But burning stuff in VB is not easy.

You could check out this article on VBAccelerator.

If its XP I know somehow you can link into the native burner using the API

But only on XP to my knowledge because earlier version dont have a native burner software

How to burn a CD in VB6 without IMAPI or other third party (almost):

1. You need low level access to the drive.
On Windows 9x/Me you can use the ASPI (Advanced SCSI Programming Interface) by Adaptec.
On Windows NT/2k/XP you can use the SPTI (SCSI Pass-Through Interface),
an DeviceIoControl() control code (but you need admin privilegdes for it).
But you could also use the ASPI here (wnaspi32.dll).

2. You have to know what to send to the drive.
You can get some drafts (for example MMC-2/3) at: http://t10.org
Compatible to IDE, too.

3. If you want to burn a data disc, you have to create the filesystem by yourself, called ISO9660, or simply burn an already existing ISO image.

I once downloaded this, I don't know from where anymore. I also don't know if this exactly what you means. I didn't tested, read this cause of time lag.

You downloaded it from my old webpage and it's pretty bad.
Also it only burns wavs.

I trow it away then.
