autodetecting cdrom drive letter

[ashfaq_t]

can someone guide me as to how to have my .bat file autodetect my cdrom drive letter.

I am trying to put my additional programs which dont fit on my xp install cd onto another cdrom and want to install those programs from that cd automatically and unattended. I want my batch file from the first cd to automatically ask for another cdrom, find the programs on that cd and install them.

Thank you for your help.

wish I knew, I'll do some looking around and see if I can find anything, but your best bet may be to just guess and hope that you're right.

A little workaround:

Write a short vbs-script, which determines, what letter your cd-drive has.

This script set it as an enviromental var e.g.

set cdletter=F:

and you're able to find your cd!

Do you want have the code for that vbs ?
