| 140694 | 2003-05-02 03:20:00 | New user of Nero Version 5. Burning files to CD RW however when I go back into them they are in read only format. Am I able to alter the information contained in the file and burn again as opposed to copying the original file, make alterations and save as a subsequent version number. Any help appreciated. |

| 140695 | 2003-05-02 04:27:00 | In a nutshell, no. CD-RW is still a CD-ROM, ie Read Only Memory. The re-write refers to the ability to wipe the CD empty, and copy something new onto it. You can never modify the contents in-situ on a CD. Iain |

What you need to do is install Nero In-CD (if not already installed) Then put in a CD-RW disc and double-click on the CD with the red arrow on it (in the System tray by the clock) Then format the CD-RW (will take a while depending on how fast your burner is) and once this is done you can read & write to the disc like a big floppy drive. |
