Use the record command from mciSendString.

[Megatron]

Try this

Private Declare Function mciSendString Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "mciSendStringA" (ByVal lpstrCommand As String, ByVal lpstrReturnString As Any, ByVal uReturnLength As Long, ByVal hwndCallback As Long) As Long
                                       
Private Sub cmdRecord_Click()
 
    'Open a WaveAudio called Record
    mciSendString "open new type waveaudio Alias record", 0&, 0, 0
    'Start Recording
    mciSendString "record record", 0&, 0, 0
    
End Sub
 
Private Sub cmdSave_Click()
 
    'Stops recording
    mciSendString "stop record", 0&, 0, 0
    'Saves the sound
    mciSendString "save record C:\Windows\Desktop\MyWav.wav", 0&, 0, 0
    'Close "Record"
    mciSendString "close record", 0&, 0, 0
                                       
End Sub
