Hi I was wondering if this is possible. I want to burn a CD which when you click on the CD icon the CD will automatically start playing index.exe. Is this possible?

I’ve looked at tutorials about creating a notepad called autorun.inf

[autorun]  
open=myFlashFile.exe

I then save the autorun.inf file and flash file and other folders on the CD but but can’t get it to work.Now I am wondering if I am trying to create something which is impossible?

I found the tutorial on web wasp and it said to save it in your root directory on the CD. This is maybe where I made the mistake as I just saved it on to a blank CD.  
You see I have made a flash game and the questions are saved in folders as txt. files and I want to give pupils the game on CD but obvioulsy not let them access the question.
