I want to put an Excel file (PhotoIndex.xls) on a CD. How can I fix it so the Excel file will automatically open when the CD is inserted? I do not have VB so I cannot create an .exe file that way.

You could try shellexe.exe. It might open an excel document.

Jeck: Your solution requires an EXE file which I don't have. I have an XLS file.

Johnw: I downloaded CDFE. Will analyze it later. Looks promising.

Shutme: Yes, that gave me an EXE file. I set it up and it works fine.

Thanks to all.
