From: Rencie on 3 Sep 2005 12:51 Well, I tried it and it worked. What about using MMControl? How can I repeat a song using MMControl?

How can I repeat a song using MMControl? I don't know. I haven't used that control in years (probably pre-VB3). However, in just looking at its event list, I see a Done event and a PlayCompleted event. I'd investigate those if I were you. Is there a particular reason you want to use the MCI Control? It sounds as if you're just playing the midi for background music. If that's the case, I don't know why you'd need (or want) to use the control. -- Mike Microsoft MVP Visual Basic
From: Rencie on 3 Sep 2005 21:13 Well, honestly, I was so thankful to see so many solutions (from you guys) to my "playing the midi file" problem. Really, there is more than one solution to a problem. I thought that the control is the only way to play a sound (either background sound, effect, music, etc.). I am so grateful to you guys for teaching me MCI and sndPlaySound. =)

Rencie, I apologise for my 'faux pas'. I should have know that sndPlaySound wouldn't have played midi files. Looks like the other guys have set you on the right track tho'. I can give you code for using the MMControl. It's a lot less than Mike's solution as there's a method that checks the position of the played file and you can set the callback interval to as low as 1ms. Let me know if you want it.
