I'm using FileIO to read text into Director on a cross platform CD.
Everything works fine on the Mac side, but on the PC side once I burn a disc
the file isn't read any more. Everything works fine in authoring mode on the
PC but when I copy the files to my Mac and burn a disc I get an I/O error
when I run it on a PC.
I've checked the paths and they are fine. One thing I've noticed is that the
files are "read-Only" once they are burned on the CD. They aren't that way
when I copy them. If I copy all of the files from the CD onto my PC's hard
drive, it still doesn't work...BUT...if I then go into the file properties
and de-select "Read-Only" they work fine.
My question is, how do I keep them from being read-only when I burn them on
the CD? I'm thinking I could copy them onto the user's hard drive and read
them from there, but that sounds silly. I've got to be missing something
simple.
Thanks in advance for advice.
Stephen
