Hi, I'm new here and am looking for help! I have 150 data files to be burned onto a CD and need to create a menu of those files on the start-up page. Any ideas how to do this in the easiest and most time-efficient way?

Thanks,
PKF

You cannot create menus for data CDs. You will have explain a bit more exactly what you are trying to accomplish.

Possibly what the OP is looking for Walt would be an autorun.inf setup

Only problem is that 150 apps is a LOT and would need to be split in blocks - and a lot of work

Basic info on creating autorun is here

Possible... but until the OP gives more information we are just guessing

Sorry I didn't give you more information. I would like the autorun to open a menu somewhat like you see on a DVD - nice and attractive and with links to the various categories of documents. I was looking for an automatic way to create that listing but since you say that you cannot create menus for data CDs, I'm probably going to be stuck creating it in HTML.

I came across a software that would create a menu but it is $150.

Thanks for our help,
PKF

You can do it by hand following the link I gave you - but you could also try these
