Auto run

[Roy Webb]

I have made a up a web site from Frontpage, saved it to CD.
When I insert the CD into the CD drive I have to search for index.htm to
open up the home page, and run the site from the cd rom. What do I have to
do so that when the cd is inserted in the cd drive it either auto starts or
i can go to an icon and click on it to start the program running, and not
having to search though hundreds of files looking for index,htm
Any help would be appreciated

Open notepad and copy the following into a new page and save it with the file name
autorun.inf and then place it on the CD


[Autorun}
shellexecute=index.htm


If index.htm is in a folder, it would be shellexecute=foldername/index.htm

If windows XP balks at this, download Shellrun from here

The file to download is: Shellrun.zip
