Playing Wavs, midi and mp3

[WylerWolf]

Is it possible to do 1 function that can play Wav AND Mid or y have to use to different Function ???

What is the syntax this/these Function ???

Sorry, you need separate functions. Unless you write your own, of course. MIDI is very hard to do if you're not using MCI -- getting the timing is a real nightmare.

Functions like PlaySound, mciSendString are the ones you need.

Yeah but want id the syntaxe of the mci function for midi and is it diferent for wav ??????

try www.all-api.net.. and search for the functions

[WylerWolf]

Public Declare Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" _ Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal_ hModule As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
PlaySound "C:\Windows\Media\ctmelody.wav" _
, 0&, &H1
End Sub

Thats work for playing wav file but,
first can you explain me what the 0& and &H1 is doing
second how do I play midi file
third how do I play mp3 ?
