I have a Windows media player control, named windowsmediaplayer1, on an Access 2003 form. In the code I have Dim WMP as Object (have tried WindowsMediaPlayer with reference to OCX).

I’m trying to remove
1) All playlists
2) Selected playlists (ie ones which I name)

Have tried the following:

Code:
Dim newPlayList As WMPLib.IWMPPlaylist
   Set newPlayList = windowsmediaplayer1.playlistCollection.Remove("MyPlaylist")

But it doesn’t work?
 
Ok, I’ve finally worked out one solution which works for me.

So here it is for anyone who’s interested / working with Windows Media Player control and VBA.

Code:
Dim objPlaylists As WMPLib.IWMPPlaylistCollection
Dim objOldList As WMPLib.IWMPPlaylistArray

Set objPlaylists = WMP.playlistCollection
Set objOldList = objPlaylists.getByName("NameOfPlaylistHere")

objPlaylists.Remove objOldList.item(0)
