Hi, I am in need of a source code in vb6 to make an auto run exe file to open a program (exe) file. Can anyone help please! 86166

if you mean you just want a certain program to run when you insert a cd, you just need to create a text file that looks like this: [autorun] open=<name of file to run> Icon=<icon or exe file containing icon> Name=<name of app [can be anything]> if you want to create a program that runs another program (when it opens, or when you click a button or whatever) you just use the "shell" function. The syntax is: Shell(<executable path>) if you want a program to run at windows startup, theres probably an api function you can use to add it to the startup menu list, or you can use use RegCreateKey to create a registry entry in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run". hope this helps, try to be more clear with exactly what you want to do in future.

It says "for CD" in the title, so the former solution would be the correct one... I should note that the textfile should be named "autorun.inf", and be placed in the root folder of the CD (ie. D:\autorun.inf) AKhalifman@hotmail.com
