I have installed Visual Studio 6 from CD1. However I am having trouble
installing the MSDN Library on CD2.

Setup asks me to insert the disk for the MDSN Library, then click 'Next'.
After inserting CD2 and clicking 'Next', I then get a pop-up box asking me
to locate the 'Microsoft Developer Network Disk 1'. However I cannot select
anything. It would be absurd to have to re-insert CD1 and in any case I only
have one CD drive on my machine.

Anyone have any idea what is going on??

thanks

Jon.

Jon,

Copy the CDs to the hard drive into a single directory, and then execute
the installation from the hard drive.
