After I have installed a program how can I run that program without using the cd rom. I need to be able to run this program for 27 stations but I only have 3 cd roms. I want to be able to run this program on the other workstations without the cds. Ihave installed it on my server but It will not transfer to the workstations.

Couple of possible answers:

If the the program needs to access data off the CD to run properly, and the program is looking to the install location for that data:
--Copy the entire CD to either a location on each computer or a central location (the server) and install the program from there.

If the program is using local access to the CD as a form of copy protection and/or means of determining proper licensing: you are probably out of luck unless you bought 27 licenses and the publisher provided you a patch to get around this feature.
