It works Borislav but I cannot use it as it stops the execution of the program till it ends playing the wave.
*---------------- I tried with the snd_async and it seems to work.....
I'll let you know Borislav

I am simulating a slot machine :-)

thank you anyway

PS I already tested the bell setting but it is set to on :-((

>>>
>>>DECLARE INTEGER sndPlaySound IN winmm;
