"Soundbox" control?

Picturebox works great for pictures-- understands common
data types such as jpegs and bmp, displays them nicely.

What's the analogous control for sound? what plays wma
etc, takes its volume settings and whatever else it needs
from the system settings, returns info about the sound
such as as its length, width and height (just kidding
about width and height).

TIA!

Hi,

It's Microsoft Media Player control. It's an ActiveX though.

You can also use the AudioVideo class that comes in the DirectX 9 SDK.
