Default Clearing read-only flag when copying from CD

"Peabody" wrote in message
news:xCTkd.1901$Dk.1144@lakeread08...

When I copy files from a CD to my hard drive, the read-only
attribute is set on all the files, presumably because the CD is a
read-only medium. I just wondered if there's any easy way to reset
that flag in the process of copying.


PowerDesk lets you select a whole directory
full of files, then alter File Attributes for all.
