There are a number of different companies that provide near-turnkey CDROM production. You provide the data, they provide the disk. It gets more complicated when you have images or multiple databases, etc. Some of these companies are quite active in this and the Multimedia forum. to name names: Nimbus Information Systems (CIS Contact: Ernie 70632,3011) (800) 782-0778 FAX: (804) 985-4625 (used to have a paper "Road to CD ROM", good overview) Online Computer Systems (CIS: Dennis McDonald 76376,3537) phone 301-601-2226 fax 301-428-2903 Reference Technology, (800) 345-9569. (CIS: Tony Lavender 76244,3475) (no known CIS contact for the following) Reference Technology (303) 449-4157 Fax (303) 442-1816 Dataware Technologies, Inc (617) 621-0820 Folio Corp. (800) USE-FOLIO FAX (801) 374-5753 and lots more but thats enough to start you. For Books, check out the Microsoft series: CD/ROM (3 titles?) There are also several magazines and newsletters. DDRI (703) 237-0682 publishes several "free to qualified subscribers". I suggest calling several of the companies first. Some (like Nimbus) have rather nice "How To" guides that explain what is required, etc. And if you want independent contract help (esp. in the Los Angeles area)…. – Jerry Isdale
