How do I create sounds in VB? For instance, I would like to create a sound that is a G note and lasts for 3 seconds. I don't want to record a G note, but create it from scratch. In other languages I have encountered functions that take pitch, length, etc. as parameters, but I can't find anything like this in VB.
There seems to be an API function to do that, but it only works in NT/2000. I have 98, so I can't test it.

' Attempt to play a note at 800 Hz for 2 seconds. This will only
' behave this way on Windows NT/2000; users of Windows 95/98 will only hear the
' default sound.
Dim retval As Long ' return value
retval = Beep(800, 2000) ' ideally, an 800 Hz tone for 2 seconds
End Sub
