What are you guys using in your VBScripts that are installing off of the cdrom? In the batch files im using the "FOR %%d IN...." command. Need something that looks for the WIN51 file in the root of the cdrom to use as an installation variable.

Thanks!

Many ways to do that...

Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set AllDrives = FSO.Drives

For Each Drive In AllDrives

    If Drive.DriveType = "4" Then

        If FSO.FileExists(Drive & "\WIN51") Then
            CDROM = Drive
            Exit For
        End If

    End If

Next

If Len(CDROM) = 0 Then WScript.Quit
