Stephen explained what i meant :) . Yes i was talking about two applications as Stephen explained. When the admin burn a cd, snapshot of the data is added to the cd , here you can try some light db solution (depends on your data). The data in the cd is managed by a desktop solution as explained by stephen. You can extend the application in the cd making as a smartclient application. Like - Ask the user run from cd or install , if they wish install we may create db file in the machine and thus can update data locally if needed. The smart client application will look for data from the web if the user wants update, or it will use local data (may be from cd). Give your thoughts on this. The project looks interesting :)
