Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm using VC++ 6 and have a dialog based app created with the wizard.<br>
<br>
I'm trying to use PlaySound() to play a wave I have inserted with the wizard into my "WAVE" resources. I have included the Visual C++ Multimedia component, and all is set to go right I think except that I cannot figure out to call the function properly.<br>
<br>
I tried PlaySound("IDR_WAVE1", NULL, SND_RESOURCE ¦ SND_ASYNC) but this does not work as the second param should be of type HMODULE. I can't find in the docs what to pass for this param - it just has hMod there but I don't know how they got that.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

Solved it with help by using PlaySound(MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_WAVE1), GetWindowModule(NULL), SND_RESOURCE ¦ SND_ASYNC)<br>
