Private Declare Function PlaySound Lib _
"winmm.dll" _
(ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal _
hModule As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long


private sub cmd1_click()
on error resume next
soundfile= App.path & "/" & "abcd.wav"
returnaval=playsound(soundfile, 0, &H0)
Endsub

The code is perfectly fine, but what i understand from the question is the OP is aking for a wave file not how to play it. OP needs a file not the code to open it.

Hi!

Your problem is the first opportunity for me to finally post something here.

Your quiz software is probably very specific therefore you cannot find anything that will fill your needs . I had the same situation some time ago and found the following solution;

You can record your own wave using Audacity (freeware) then save it using whatever name you and directory you wish then in your Form declaration section insert the following code ( on 1 line )

Private Declare Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "PlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszName As String, ByVal hModule As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long) As Long

Insert the following code in the command button ( or whatever else you are using) to play the file.
retval = PlaySound("C:\wave directory name\filename.wav", 0&, &H20000)

Remember to change the directory name and filename to coincide with yours

I hope it solves the problem for you as it did for me
