Thank you all (once again) for the great tips... I agree with Andreas, that i can be difficult... but since i wrote similar things in flash, with remote read write, the translation to dir is in mij eyes far more easy, since i make create and manage list and save them as text files on local disc.
the only tricky part in my eyes is the listing... i plan to add as wel the possibility to copy[paste the cd content on a "manual" way, but i want to spare time by just having a "New from disc" record button with a script that scan the cd port and give me back the listing from the cd, if there is a cd.... the rest is quite simple, its just a main list with cd name, then saving appart the content of each cd's, with as name cdname & ".txt" on loacl disc... anyway, thats the way i plan to do it, then for seach, i can chooze from the cdnames list, the one i want, then using things as "if contains myVarseach word" , then open and read each saved content text files... the other goed thing is that i allways can use the text files, in order to make a print jacket cd option for example... etc.. thanks you all again, i wil per direct go take a peek at those xtra's...
