Solve : Bat file for play/eject cdrom?

Answer»

Old age.....i had it somewhere.....and now after**** years i decide to use it......but can remember the script..long script....is all i can give you.Merlin,

This script will EJECT a CD:

Code: [Select]
Dim WMP: Set WMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX")
Dim CDROMs: Set CDROMs = WMP.cdromCollection

'If CDROMs.Count >= 1 Then
' For i = 0 to CDROMs.Count - 1
CDROMs.Item(0).Eject
' Next
'End If

Set WMP = Nothing
Set CDROMs = Nothing
WScript.Quit


The above script will eject the first CD it FINDS. Make changes if you have more than one. If you uncomment the lines marked ' , all the CD drives will pop open.

As for playing a CD, just execute the PROGRAM that created the file. Most applications allow a command line argument for opening a file when the app is loaded.

Hope this HELPS. Thanks SIDEWINDER.......i will execute it when i get a chance.
