It was piece of educational software produced by Lexmark, the app was made by a guy here, however we sent the stuff off to get burned.
It was written in Director, there was a Mac executable on the Mac portion of the disc, and a windows executable on the ISO portion of the disk. The actual data was on the ISO portion, and the Mac executable just read that. He created the CD using Toast, I was hoping for a way around that, as I don't have complete access to a Mac, and what I am doing is for personal use, not company, so I would feel bad using company equipment for it. > -----Original Message----- > From: Kevin Graeme [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 2:02 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Hybrid Burning Software > > Interesting indeed.
