CD Architect actually can't be used to make a multisession
write. It will always close the session by design.

It might be best to contact a mastering facility in your
area to ask how they suggest making a mixed mode CD. Perhaps
they would quote on this service if you supply the Audio
master and Data track seperately.

If there are any mastering engineers out there with ideas,
I would welcome your input.
