I think what may be best for you is to copy the file to your hard drive
and use something like Winzip to zip the file and burn it to multiple
CDs. I believe the latest version will allow you to do this. Cost for
this is minimal at $29.95, supposedly for any future releases.


Forgot to answer your original. I'm not sure if that old a version
allows the spanning. I just created a 2gb zip file with PowerArchiver,
and it allows you to split the files into whatever media you are trying
to write to. In this case it created 3 650mb files + another with the
remainder. You would need to install either the WinZip or Powerarchiver
to both machines, or when you create your zip, you create a self
extracting EXE file that will extract all your files automatically.

WinZip - www.winzip.com
PowerArchiver - www.powerarchiver.com

You can use these on a trial basis, but I am not sure you get full
functionality with the trial.
