sounds

[flog3941]

When I click a button I would like it to make a certain sound, and how do I "import this sound from a file? And not just the lame "beep()" sound either

The framework doesn't support sound yet, you'll have to use interop/pinvoke.

this little API works fine :

Private Declare Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal hModule As Integer, ByVal dwFlags As Integer) As Integer
    Private Const SND_FILENAME As Integer = &H20000 '  name is a file name
    Private Const SND_ASYNC As Short = &H1S '  play asynchronously
    Private Const SND_SYNC As Short = &H0S
    Private Const path As String = "specify the path here"
 
'then call as follow :
PlaySound(path & "\wavsound.wav", 0, SND_SYNC)
