Copy the file from your cd to your hard drive. Then go to the properties for the 
file on your hard drive and change them that should work. Then open the file that 
on your hard drive  from your program. Once you write to a CD you can not change 
the properties there fixed for life unless your using some special software and a 
CD-RW that can handle that type of change

Good luck and let us know.
