Get some CD-RWs to play with and look in the Help files.

If you get stuck, post your questions.

If you have the .WAV files titled as you want them, then in Music Disc Creator, when you go to start the burn, there's a checkbox to write CD Text.  I don't have the program in front of me so I don't know the exact wording, but it says something like, "write track title" or "write CD Text info".

Keep in mind that if you play the discs back using Windows Media Player, WMP does not support CD-Text, so even if the disc has all that information, WMP won't display it.  You can used something like the free HACP player to check your CD-Text information.

If you are using WMP you can go here and download a plugin that will allow it to show the CD Text

Thanks, Terry.  I remembered something about there being a plug-in but wasn't inspired to go looking.

You're welcome.I stumbled across that a while back when I was trying to see about CD-Text.It's a common problem that people don't see it in WMP and then think it doesn't work.Why Microsoft,with all their supposed wisdom doesn't just build it in is beyond me.
