Starting installed programs through cd

[meester]

I don't know if this possible.

I got a program on a cd;

When the user runs it for the first time, the progam is installed on the users hard disk

Now, everytime the user inserts the cd-rom, the program that's been installed on the harddisk should start.

It is so somple.... just do as...

1 - When your application runs for the first time... check system registry using "RegKey Object"
2 - If they keys are not found... or a certain value is not match for example HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\YourApp\isInstalled is not found or is empty or is False... then run the installer...

3- When installtion completes. then again. create the key in the registry. and set the value "True".

.... Now you are done. It will work fine. If you are facing problem, then ask.

hope it will help you.

The users can chose the destination folder. How can I retrieve the path then?

(As you see, I don't know my way in te reg-object)
