Many CD-Rom distribution companies will include shareware programs on their CD, and you may find it frustrating that the programs crash one after the other when attempting to launch/run them from the CD. This may be due to the applications attempt to write to some block on a read only CD. Hopefully, all CD-Rom distribution companies and programmers will inform their users of this problem. The problem can also be corrected by the programmer being aware of his/her application residing on a CD and informing the user that further use of the application will be limited or not possible at all.
So,
If you are using any of these applications from a CD-ROM, please copy all of the files to your hard disk first.
AreaCodeFinder™ writes data to the data file when you add new information to it. The "ACF Data Merger" application will not work at all on the CD, it MUST reside on a writeable drive/disk.
