hello there..
im developing an applications that says "good morning/afternoon/evening/night" on startup, this might sound silly, but would anyone kindly give me the time limits that i can use in my program for morning, then the limit for afternoon, evening night
#2 im actually a beginner when it comes to using multimedia with vb6, i know this is easy, but i never tried, how can we open a sound file and then close it after it finishes..ummm someone could possibly help by giving me hints for the code i need to use for the good morning/afternoon etc part..
thx

Here is code to play a sound file
Code:
'module (Api Functions declarations)
Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As Long) As Long
Public Const SND_ALIAS = &H10000 ' name is a WIN.INI [sounds] entry
Public Const SND_ASYNC = &H1 ' play asynchronously
Public Const SND_LOOP = &H8 ' loop the sound until next sndPlaySound
Public Const SND_NOWAIT = &H2000 ' don't wait if the driver is busy
Public Const SND_SYNC = &H0 ' play synchronously (default)
'Form code
public sub cmdPlaysoundClick()
dim ret as long
ret=sndplaysound("c:\windows\bee.wav",SND_SYNC)
End Sub
Hope this helps

on your form add a timer control. add this code:
Code:
Private Form_Load()
Timer1.Interval = 1000
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
'// Add your code here to check the time and
'// display message and play sound you like
End Sub
i did not include the complete code. you can figure it out. use the code above to play the sound. goodluck!
