I can't Burn pictures to CD

[Guest]

I am using Windows XP pro and Office 2003 pro. When I go to the help about
burning pictures to a CD, it tells me to go to "MyPictures" and under
Picture tasks select "Copy to CD". The problem is that I do not have the
option to "Copy to CD". I don't know if all the options are loaded for XP or
if I'm supposed to have some other program to do this.

Any advice? Thanks

Best if you have a third party software to make it easy and complete
uncorrupted copying procedure sometime can happen with the normal windows
copy.
Try to right click and select from the drop down list send to and select
CD/DVD and insert a CD and see if that will get burnt to the CD if not then
you need a third party burning software, some free and some you can buy with
lots of feature and support.
HTH.

First, note that the fact these are pictures is completely irrelevant. What
you want to do is burn files to a CD. Whether they are pictures, music
files, word processing files, or anything else, doesn't matter. The process
for doing this is identical regardless of what kind of files they are.

Second, do you have third-party CD-burning software installed or are you
trying to do this with Windows native CD-burning facilities.Some OEM
computers come with third-party burning software, so it's possible that you
have something and hadn't realized it.
