    Talking [Resolved - thanx to msayed2004]'Talk' with Windows Media Player *please help*

    I need two things for a program I'd like to write (mybe only one). What I want to do is have a hot-key that will stop/play WMP(9 series). I've got the hotkey thing worked out, but what I need to do is somehow tell WMP to Stop or Play (not Pause/play!). What code could I use to do this? I either need a) a way to actually 'talk' to WMP directly and 'tell' it to stop/play, or b) a way to simulate a key press system wide BUT, if I use option 2, I'm not sure what the ASCII of the stop/play key is that WMP responds to. Can anyone help?
