How to play a wave file with a sound? (1 Viewer)

[Gkirkup]

I have an old playsound() function in my code to play wave files with beeps etc. It uses the apisndplaysound function but my latest version of Access does not include that. So I have commented out that code.
Is there a function that will play wave files, or can anyone suggest one?

It would appear that MS is devaluing the old ActiveX method in favor of WASAPI, but I haven't seen VBA examples of this yet.

I see that Windows Media Player is a control. I want to have one 'Playsound' VBA function. How do I put Windows Media Player into VBA?
