Are you trying to use Visual basic to play a midi file ? If you are not and you are outside Visual Basic, to play a midi file it is very simple - with free shareware from the internet, like Cresendo player (search "midi cresendo" etc.)

If I make a question in Visual Basic area, it's bacause I'm writting a programme
and I don't know how to use the MCI control. Do you know what is it?????
If I wanted to do it outside Visual Basic and I didn't know how to do it, then I'd
ask this question in Windows topic Area.
Thanx for your comment.

Hi, someu,
i searched a few books & vbasic help menu, but can only find TimeFormat in MMcontrol, or mciSendString(cmd,returnStr,0,0) in MMinterface - which are closest to unit like clock / metronome. Sorry i cannot help you on the ppty 'clock/metronome', but if you provide the link to find this ppty in Vbasic, i can re-open your specific question to the expert public.

Best regards,
Collin ng
