im doing a progect and i was wondering whether it is possible to pay mp3's in VB5
thanks for the links they are helping heaps
im wondering though
do i need VB6 coz at the moment i have VB5 :(
Yup, it's for VB6. But you can search http://www.planet-source-code.com for "MP3", I'm sure you will find something that might work in VB5 there.

I am a VB5 programmer (a 3rd world app :lol:) and playing MP3's in VB5 is as easy to do Hello World.
Just add a Windows Media Player control on your form (don't worry, everybody that have win95/98/me/2000/nt have this control built in), call it wmp and check this out:
Is it good?Code:'Make it only for music with no video
Private Sub Form_Load()
wmp.Visible = True
End Sub
'Make a Common Dialog control and call it cod
cod.ShowOpen
wmp.Open cod.FileName
'Play
wmp.Play
'Pause
wmp.Pause
'Stop
wmp.Stop
'Get File Name
MsgBox wmp.FileName
