- Hi there!,
-
- This is an example of a shuffle play audio CD player.
- I got the idea to write this and upload it as an example
- because of all the problems I've had getting this far with
- the MCI.VBX custom control. I figured that MS (you know who)
- wasn't going to do it and so I would. Anyway I did this
- example in a few hours using some of the code for a shareware
- program that I've written, The Audio Box 2.1.
-
- I had quite a bit of problems with the MMControl.TrackLength
- property and with the MMControl.Position property.
- Microsoft finally came through with an updated knowledge base
- file called VB Tips. That solved the MMControl.Position
- problem for me, however... the MMControl.TrackLength didn't
- follow the same rules. You'll see what I mean in the code
- example.
-
- I've also used a few API functions for getting the Windows version,
- resources available and various other system stuff in the
- AboutBox form.
-
- If anyone can come up with a better way of doing the ShufflePlay
- Sub let me know! In fact if anyone comes up with any improvement
- to this in any way, I'd like to see the code.
-
- Anyhow thanks for reading this, I hope to hear from a few of
- you!
-
- Happy Coding,
- Larry Seater
