Hi, Mark Mystifying why the two messages in the forum have missing stuff at the start; I got the complete message via EMAIL. YES, I am definitely interested in a SDK package that provides C-language access to the device-driver level CDROM stuff. Do you have any idea when you would be ready to release something, and about what it would cost? I'm really asking more for my boss than myself; neither of us have actual CDROM hardware yet but we are both about to buy same. He is interested in language processing and accessing under his own program control some CDROMs that have large amounts of textual information; like the packages of great literature, for example. But he wants to read the data for computer processing, rather than just display it as their bundled package does. I don't think either of us have gotten far enough into the idea yet that we could even give you a list of the desired C functions to be called; while we are both expert C/Windows people, neither of us knows diddly about CDROM yet!
