How can I get the MCI DeviceID of a CD-ROM drive??? I've been tearing my hair out over this for ages!!!
Private Sub Form_Load()

With MMControl1

now change your name & chilllllll
OK here's the reason I've been trying to figure this out for a week: I need to do it without using the Microsoft Multimedia Control from the components list. There must be an API way... thanks anyway!
here are a few API Declatations that might help. The Code should look about the same since the MM Control calls these same APIs... Have fun

WOW man, you went to a lot of trouble! Thanks!

here is mciSendString example in vb .net which may provide some assistance.
