I've created an autorun CD with a flash executable for a product video demo and
would like to allow the viewer to save a demo version of a software program to
their hard disk. Is it possible to program a button within Flash that calls up
an executable stored on the CD and installs it on their PC?

Create a folder called FSCOMMAND in the same directory as your main swf and
then place your executable in this folder. In Flash use the following command
to target the exe, where "my_instal.exe" is your executable.

fscommand("exec","my_instal.exe");
