How to burn a Cumulus database on
CD-ROM refrencing the CD-ROM images

When you burn a database and images on CD you normally want the records in the database to reference the images on the CD. Therefore it is necessary that you have the images on a CD with the same name you intend to give to the final CD and create the database referencing the images on CD.

Please give the volume you are preparing for mastering the exactly same name as your CD-ROM will have. Use the same file and folder structure on the volume as it will be used on the CD-ROM.

Assuming that you use a hard-disk as a master for your CD-ROM here are some instructions to make sure that your database references the final images on your CD-ROM.

1) Copy all your image files to your master disk.
2) Produce one prerelease CD-ROM from the master hard-disk
3) Insert the prereleased CD-ROM.
4) Open the database.
5) Catalog the image files from the CD-ROM into the database. This procedure will ensure that all references to the image files on the CD-ROM will actually be references to the CD-ROM files and not to the hard-disk files.

Don't forget to make a final check by opening the database.
