music play

If you want to play a fie, write it in the FileNeme property. If this is a standard multimedia file, it'll be playd automatically if you set the AutoOpen property to true.
If you want to play an audio CD, set the DeviceType property to dtCDAudio.

I can send you an exmple of a CD player application I wrote. Or if you tell what exctly you want to do, I can send you some other example.
