Does ROXIO Creator 9 have a file Drag N Drop Feature?

I wish to be able to copy program & data files &/or folders to a DVD using a file management program called ZTreeWin.  Grabbing & pasting from Windows Explorer is also a possibiliy but with less control than ZTree.

Does ROXIO Creator 9 allow this?  I believe Creator 6 offered a similar feature.

I have tried using Nero 7 Essentials but this does not allow much control over which files / folders are copied.

I would really like to be able to treat a DVD just like a normal hard drive for copying & deleting if that is possible.

The Suite is called Creator 2009, not to be confused with EMC 9 of years ago.

Packet Writing was removed in EMC 10 and no one has ever looked back…

Optical media was never designed to work like a big floppy and in the end it usually results in data lose.

However if you want to risk it, Vista has it built into the OS…

You can still use ZTW, which is an excellent file manager. I use it all the time, and wouldn't be without it.

Instead of moving or copying the files to your destination disc, move or copy them to a folder and when all the moving or copying is done then you burn the folder to a data disc with Creator Classic.

This isn't as convenient as Drag-to-Disc, but it's ever so much more reliable.
