I am new to burning cd's. I need some advice on which format to use and what type of disc to buy.

I need to make Data CD's that consist of MS-Excel spreadsheets with embedded .JPG images and
an Introduction file written with MS-Word. I would like the discs to be able to be updated by the user.
The files will total about 400 Megs.

To be the most compatible with the most number of users, which type of discs should I use?

. .  'update by user' is the hassle here.

Suggest you think of optical media for archival tasks - ie buy archival quality media [Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim media] & write-once only.

For your task would suggest you use cheap USB-sticks - these media handle read/write much better.
