Recording data files on CD Rom

[Carol]

When I record a data file onto my CD RW the file then
becomes read only on the cd rom. How can I change the
read only so I can write to the file?

All files recorded to a CD will be "read only". If you wish to make
changes to that file, copy it back to your hard drive, open it, make the
desired changes and record it back to the CD.

will do that. Thanks again.
