sounds

Where can I find some 1) sounds such as a "boing" or "click", 2) what tags
do I use and 3) are there examples of triggering a sound such as 1) button
clicked and 2) when a time interval has passed?

TIA,
Lee

I'm pretty sure if you rumpage around in your computer's deeper files
you'll probably find sounds. As for triggering, I still have to learn
that myself ;-)

If your using Window$ maybe windows/media. Else search for .wav or .mid
files.
A simple <a href ="pathto/ding.wav">Click for ding"</a> should play the
sound if you have audio.
If you use a button then there are other ways to programatically call a
sound.
A search of this group via google with "playing sounds" turned up some
mosty older stuff but try a few different search strings. Just not 'sounds'
alone :>) BTDT HTH

Instead of a beep sound playing as an alarm or reminder I would like to be able to play a more interesting sound. On the web, I found and tried a sound routine that uses the SOUND.DRV but it does not work for me. Maybe it would be best to try to play a small mp3 or wav file instead - does VB 6.0 have built-in support for sounds like that? Tom

Hi Guys, I am using the PlaySound to play .wav files in my application. Eg. a = PlaySound(App.Path & chip_sound, SND_ASYNC) Is it possible to play two sounds at the same time? Everytime the 2nd sound is started the first sound is automatically stopped.. Thanks!

Hello! In our game package (www.andromedaonline.net) we are having problems with sounds. We have placed them in a jar file, and are trying to access them from there. The jar file has a directory structure. A number of sounds have the same name, but are in a different directory (for example, our game has 5 races. Each race has the same set of sounds- button clicks, etc, but the actual sound is different).

I want to write a game, and sounds will really add to it. Note that I would always make the sounds optional. I hate it when I go to a URL and unexpectedly get sounds or music. I have played with bgsound in IE, and found I can have simultaneous sounds using multiple bgsound tags. I have done a google search, and the only results I found were for "multiple sounds", and all of these really meant "consecutive sounds" -- one sound...

Most Access Users fail to realize that they can significantly enhance their applications by introducing various sounds (*.WAVs) in response to specific events. The only intrinsic sound that Access can generate is the DoCmd.Beep which is hardly worth the time to mention. You can incorporate sound functionality into your Access applications via a single call to a relatively simple API Function. A couple of arguments to the Function dictate where...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
