'The sndPlaySound function plays a *.wav sound file. Microsoft recommends the
'use of the PlaySound function, but sndPlaySound is still supported in Windows.
'Primary Code:
Dim iReturn As Long, SoundFile As Asciiz * Max_Path
SoundFile = "sound.wav"
iReturn = sndPlaySound(SoundFile, %SND_ASYNC) 'play once, in background
iReturn = sndPlaySound(SoundFile, %SND_SYNC) 'play once, apps waits til song conpletes
iReturn = sndPlaySound(SoundFile, %SND_ASYNC Or %SND_LOOP) 'play continuously
iReturn = sndPlaySound("", %SND_ASYNC) 'stop once song has started
'Note: sndPlaySound can also play system sounds. See this snippet: http://gbl_00328
'Compilable Example: (Jose Includes)
'press Start to play sound one time. Stop to cancel playing.
'this example actually plays 2 sounds - a file and a system sound
