No, the user get not control whatsoever. Heh... ok now here's the new problem. I get evrything done like you said, but when I run it, I get another runtime error:

"Run-Time Error '438':
Object doesn't support this property or method."

I got that with your previous tips as well. Then to debug it it highlights :

WindowsMediaPlayer1.FileName = App.Path & "\car.mpg"

which is the file I am trying to play. I actually moved the car.mpg file into my vb directory that was shown. hehe coz I didn't know how to change it in this... "VB editor". Whats that? I just opened a form and askde the program to "Print App.Path" from a command button.
