I remember a similar problem with Cytomation's (CyClops?) software a few years
ago. It seems that some programs need to be able to write in order to read.
So, if you're trying to read from a CD, it's a no go. If we copied the data
from the CD to the hard disk it worked fine. I'm guessing you'll have the same
problem if you try to look at data on a locked disk; floppy, zip, MO, whatever.

Subject: Elite Data Question
Good day all . . .
I've been following the CD-Recorder file problem thread, but for the
most part it seemed to be a MAC-to-PC issue . . . I was wrong.
So, I'm using a CD-Recorder (Smart & Friendly) to archive data generated
from my Elite (Coulter's MSDOS Elite software). I use Adaptec's CD
Creator software in Win98 to actually create the archive CD. Now,
here's the problem . . .
When I restore the saved data, I can no longer read these files in the
Elite software. I can see the data using WinMDI, and I can even look at
the data with CellQuest (once I run FACSConvert on the MAC, of course).
Inspection of the files reveals no obvious change. Any ideas?
MAK.
