Vaguely travel related as the tablet PC is so dinky.....

I've managed to make a simple network to link the tablet PC to my old laptop. This is fine for file sharing, but I now need to add some software to the tablet. It has no input with it and whilst I could go out and buy a CD rom drive specifically for it, i'd have thought it would be possible to map a connection to the D drive on my laptop.

Can anyone explain how to do this?

The other option may be to copy the files off the CD onto the C drive of the laptop then launch from there, but I suspect that I might not be able to do this (I'm trying to install a new copy of Office 2003 professional).

Many thanks


Edited to add - I took the risk and managed to copy from the laptop's CD drive directly onto a shared drive on the tablet then run the instal from there, but would still like to know about mapping the CD drive from the tablet for the future,

Thanks
