Windows CDROM Eject

Question

Does anyone know a method to programmatically close the CD tray on Windows 2000 or higher? Open CD tray exists, but I can\'t seem to make it close especially under W2k.

Answer 1

To close the drive tray do as described here but instead of using DeviceIoControl with IOCTL_STORAGE_EJECT_MEDIA you need to call DeviceIoControl with IOCTL_STORAGE_LOAD_MEDIA.
