MS ACCESS 2007 PACKAGE SOULUTION: Is there a way to copy files

B

BrianPaul

I have a database I did for the church, No problem with the database, nothing
wrong packaging it up by itself either. What the database does is,
catalogues MP3 Sermons, I renamed them they hyperlink fine etc.

Here is my problem: I can add files, there is a bunch of MP3, It lockes up
in the middle of when I am packaging them. So I rechecked and only selected
about 20 MP3 FIles and added them. The subfoler was called Pastor, It worked
fine. I may be assuming there is a limitation of how many files I can
include in the installer package. My Question: There is a place where I can
put code in the packager: Couldn't I just Compile the program without adding
any MP3's then run some kind of command line to Copy *.MP3 to
C:\SPIRIT\PASTOR then copy the church music mp3's over to C:\SPIRIT\MUSIC.
Another words after I Compile the application and prepairing to write to a
CD: I just add 2 folders, Music, Sermons, then copy files in the folder,
Burn to CD. Thats not my problem: I know how to do that. Howerver, how
would I run a command after the installation to copy the files from the CD:
to the Directory (which I would know, cause I created it using the package
wizard) to for example: Copy *.* C:\SPIRIT\MUSIC COPY *.* C:\SPIRIT\SERMON
????? I know you may be thinking, have the church members after installing
the application (accessruntime.exe and mdb) just copy them over themselves.
The answer to that is like explaining to your grandmother that just knows how
to point and click. LOL. Thanks any help would be greatly appreciated
