When you copy files from a CD it changes the attribute to RO. Open up
your AmiBroker and click on a file to see if the Read Only box is
checked. Uncheck it. To uncheck all the files, click on Edit->Select
All(while holding down the Ctrl key), Select Properties and uncheck
the RO attribute. At least I think this is the best way to do it in
Windows 98. Been using Linux for so long, I can't quite remember.
