Create an Auto-Run CD

By , About.com Guide

This is not a Delphi trick, but as a programmer (using any language) some time you might need this:

What you have to do is to create a text file named "Autorun.INF" containing the following text:

[autorun]
OPEN=myprogram.EXE
ICON=myicon.ICO

where myprogram.exe is the application that you want to "autorun" and the icon will be the icon for the CD when you put it in.
