>>I haven't tried this, so this is off the top of my head. There are ActiveX controls that are designed to play sounds of various types. What their requirements are I have no idea off the top of my head. (I'll know by tomorrow though) They should take advantage of installed sound capabilities. When I'm working on a game, I use the DirectX tools to provide sounds. But then I'm working with C++.
