Hi,

What is the content of ErrorLocation when you are on your server and on the
client?

Hi,

What is the content of ErrorLocation when you are on your server and on the
client?

Client: "C:\Websites\TimeSheets\wavs\compute.wav"

Server: "F:\Intranet\Applications\TimeSheets\wavs\compute. wav"

I get no errors on both, just no sound from the server, so it is
finding the wav file on the server. I know becuase I got errors with
different paths before on the server.

Try this:

My.Computer.Audio.Play(ErrorLocation, AudioPlayMode.Background)

Thanks for your help but I get a message somthing like Audio is not a
member of My.Computer. How can I get it to be a member?

Thanks,
Roger

Ahhh is this a website or a web control library? My.Computer.Audio isn't
available in those kinds of project. If this is a web site, you need to
specify a URL, rather than a file path ( I suspect ) with your media player
control, possibly file:\\\myserver\bla\bla\bla or similar). I have not much
experience of ASP.NET, so others might be able to confirm.

Thanks for your help! I tried a URL but it still does not work, no
sound on the client machine????

I don't think the mentioned methods ('SoundPlayer' and 'My.Audio.Play') are
intended for use in Web applications. In both cases the sound will be
played on the server and not on the client.
