World Book is my favorite CD-ROM.  I have the networked version but
haven't installed it yet.  Knowing that networked verions of multi-media
ency. can run really slowly on the network I asked my sales rep.  His
suggestion is to put the multi-media files ( about 6 files I think) onto
the server.  This would speed up the access time. The reason we haven't
put it on our server is that we are maxed out right now and won't have
the space (300 megs) until we get another server.
