I've been using sound in my forms but have come across an issue I can't seem to figure out.
I have about 70 sounds and I was just adding a new one to my library.
When I reference it in my code; it won't play.
Yes the file name and path's are correct. (tripple checked that) is there a track length maximum? It's probably one of my longest tracks.
The code I use to launch it looks like:
Code:
sndPlaySound32 "C:\sound\soundfx.wav", &H1
All of my other sounds work in this project.
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.

nevermind. Not sure why, but I originally converted this file from mp3 to wav using an online converter. AFter repeating the process with a different online conversion utility; the file plays.
