[AccessD] MSDN cds online

They are still there Arthur.  I don't know why, maybe there is a limit
of how many downloads can be accomplished at the same time, but I got
the same "Page not found" on numerous occasions.  I just kept going to
the url and it finally let me download.

I guess I wasn't quick enough. They seem to be gone now. I'm getting
page not found.

Thanks for this.  I am downloading now.

For some odd reason I am only getting about 180 kbytes / sec today!
This could take awhile.

I saw this in Woody's Office Watch and I thought some of you might be
interested...

from WOW 8.18:

6. BURNING MSDN CDS
Last month I told all of you programmers that Microsoft has posted the
April 2003 MSDN CDs, and you can get all three of them free for the
downloading. Those CDs include an enormous amount of information on
Visual Studio 2003 - it's the required reference for those of you
willing to make the leap from VBA to VB (or C) .NET.

The CD images are at:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/d/c/bdccea1b-96d9-4ad9-8045-566

One teensy-tiny problem. The CDs are in ISO image format - so-called
.IMG files - and you may have problems burning those files to a CD.

WOWser TP writes: "To get the files to CD you need a program like
"undisker" found at http://www.undisker.com. This software will open and
view the contents much like standard Zip file software and write the
contents to the CD drive. I only used the time limited shareware version
of "undisker" but the software worked very well and I am considering the
purchase of the full version.

One thing you will need to know is the Volume label that needs to be on
the CD. I am pretty sure that it is the name of the file without the
extension. Without the correct volume name the CD's will not load."


from WOW 8.19:

7. BURNING .IMG CDS
Last week I told you about WOWser TP's travails trying to get the
downloaded April 2003 MSDN CD images burned to CD. He used Undisker, and
it worked fine.

WOWser IW notes that he was able to burn the MSDN CDs by simply changing
the file name extension from .IMG to .ISO, and then using Nero (on a
Windows 2000 machine). WOWser RC did the same thing and had no problem
with Windows XP's native file burner.
