Try looking in the Development Library under: \Product Documentation \DDKs \Microsoft CD-ROM Extensions DDK \CD-ROM Programmer's Guide for MS-DOS CD-ROM Extensions \Technical Overview \Creating CD-ROM Discs in the High Sierra Format If the MSCDEX DDK doesn't have an answer, try asking in the MSDR forum or try calling the Developer Solutions team at 800-426-9400. James, MS Developer Network —————————————————————————– — I've got an ISO Level 2 CDROM that I'd like to be able to use on an MS-DOS machine. There's a couple long directory and filenames on the disc that don't work well with MS-DOS. For example, there are directories named like "VEHICLES_LAND" "VEHICLES_AIR" and "VEHICLES_SPACE". These all appear as "VEHICLES" under MS-DOS. You can 'cd' into them under Windows NT, which confirms that WinNT can handle ISO Level 2 discs. For files, some DOS programs that work with wildcards can open files in sequence that have apparently the same filename. Others can't. Barring any other solution, can anyone confirm if you could make a 'cd', 'dir' and 'copy' using Microsoft's MSCDEX developer tools that would be compatible with ISO Level 2 discs? I've got Microsoft's MDN Level 2 developer tools, but so far, I haven't found the right MSCDEX documentation… disc 8 has MSDOS/MSCDEX, but these appear to be docs for drivers that exist below MSCDEX itself, not MSCDEX. So where is the MSCDEX doc hidden? Read action !reply Th Enter reply. (/EXIT when done) 1: anks! 2: /post Message # 16009 posted
