PlaySound() question - Please help! 3

[Robertus]

I need to know ALL the steps in order to use PlaySound() in a simple dialog based app. My app has only one button that I wish to play a sound when I click it. And that sound I want it loaded from REosurces.

I've tried including <mmsystem.h> but it seems that there is something elese that I should do since there appears an error LNK2001. There is something missing, I;m sure of it.


Thanks.

Just used this in a program not too long ago....try this

#include &quot;mmsystem.h&quot;

void CSomeClass::OnClickButtonSound()
{
//I used the sndPlaySound() cause it seemed easier
sndPlaySound(&quot;YourSound.wav&quot;, SND_ASYNC);
}

I know you said that you wanted to load it from a resource, but I didn't. You may wanna try something like this to load it from a resource.

PlaySound (&quot;&quot;,YOUR_RESOURCE_NAME, SND_RESOURCE);
Just fill in what your resource is named and it should work. Other than that, I can't help you anymore.

Hope that helps!

Something I forgot to mention, make sure that you have a link to winmm.lib.

Goto Project->Settings
Click on the Link tab
Type in Winmm.lib in the Object/Librarie modules edit box
