Hello,

How would I go about coping a folder from a cdrom that can change from system to system, to the local C Drive.

I understand how to copy files and folders, but do not understand how to referenance the system cdrom drive, that changes from system to system.

Thanks for your help.

Mike

I found this script and trying to make it work, but having trouble getting the file from the cd rom drive. I think the problem is with this line of code.

objFSO.CopyFile ("Drive.DriveLetter") & "\licenseterms.txt"

Whole script here

Const DriveTypeCDROM = 4
Set objFSO = Wscript.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oDrives = objFSO.Drives
'Loop thru A-Z. If found, exit early.
For Each Drive in oDrives
If Drive.DriveType = DriveTypeCDROM Then
Wscript.Echo Drive.DriveLetter
objFSO.CopyFile ("Drive.DriveLetter") & "\licenseterms.txt"    , "C:\Program Files\keys\"
End If
Next

I found my problem:

objFSO.CopyFile ("Drive.DriveLetter") & ":\licenseterms.txt"

Now I have a new problem, getting the attrib's of read-only off of the file so that I can copy it to the c: drive.

Any ideas.

Thanks,

Mike
