>No that I can help you with the problem regardless of your answer, but the question is burning me inside <g> What do you use to play the audio?

I finally found it in the samples that come with VFP.

In the windows API section.

And because of Jim's reply I'll use the code that comes with the STOP. That should be the best solution. Instead of forcing the user to listen all the way to the audio.

Happy new year to you Hugo.
