[sirisha]

Hi All,

I have downloaded the exe given by Numedia Software to burn the dvd.
but it is taking only the iso files to burn. so my question is that can
i write .txt,.xls , .doc, .... files using this exe???
if anybody knows the solution, let me know.
here i m with developing the application to burn cd and dvd using
vb.net. and so if anybody knows the alternative code to write the
cd/dvd. let me know...

Thanks in Advance...

IMAPI doesnt support dvds . so can u suggest me some other way.. to
