- I have two questions:
-
- 1. Using the standard lable control in MSC++ 1.1, whenever I set the
- "text transparent" propery to enabled (ie the label does not have a
- background and the background is clear) nothing seems to happen. That
- is I still see black text on the default white backround. What am I
- doing wrong?? Can someone send me a code fragment that works?? I have
- seen this done in VB, but MSC++ just seems to laugh at me at the
- moment....
-
-
- 2. Using the MCI VBX that comes standard with VB 3.0. I can not seem
- to be able to play more than one sound. I realise that I have to close
- the device before opening it again with the new file name. However I
- have done this as well as reading all the manuals (VB & C++) that I
- have and even following that nothing seems to work. Anybody willing to
- send me a code fragment that first plays one sound and then plays
- another (ie. 2 distrinct WAV files).
-
- Thanks, I appreciate the help. If possible could you mail me direct.
