I just downloaded cdw. It looks pretty straight-forward to me. to add files to a CD-ROM, select "Add files" from the menu and press enter. A pop-up window appears starting in your current directory. Simply navigate to the directory you want and press space on each file you want to add. Press escape to exit out of the window. Then select "Write data CD" from the menu and press enter. It should write the CD at that point. HTH PRINCE
