Using OpenFile() in script as I wanted to create a publication that will run from CD-ROM and not require installation. I have a problem as the function will not work when reading from CD-ROM.

I expect this has to do with read only of CDs, but I only want to read from text file and not write. Or am I using incorrect code for what I want to to.

Code is below:

could you publish it as 'run as a webpage'?
does the 'Run publication from CDrom only' option help? (Pub Properties >>> Security). That may still require an installation.... I haven't used.

Be interesting to see what solutions others recommend.

Thanks Lar,

Got it working now I think, will try it out on a burned CD tomorrow. But works from local read only text file here.


It is not false, false. It is false, true. Great.

var TextPulled = OpenFile(SYSTEM_PUBLICATION_DIR + "List.txt", false, true)
while (TextPulled.EndOfFile() == false)
{
featureArray[i] = TextPulled.ReadLine();
}
TextPulled.Close();
