MessageBeep sound type?

[sajidm]

Hi,
How can i find IDs of System sounds to pass ID to MessageBeep(ID) function.The documentation says these are defind in [sounds] section of registry,I can't find. I want to pass ID of "ringin.wav" or any other sound other than default sound.

Thanx.

Following the documentation:

BOOL MessageBeep( UINT uType // sound type);

Parameters
uType

Specifies the sound type, as identified by an entry in the [sounds] section of the registry. This parameter can be one of the following values:
Value Sound

0xFFFFFFFF Standard beep using the computer speaker
MB_ICONASTERISK SystemAsterisk
MB_ICONEXCLAMATION SystemExclamation
MB_ICONHAND SystemHand
MB_ICONQUESTION SystemQuestion
MB_OK SystemDefault

So, you don't precise the wav file you want to play, but the type of sound. the association type / file is a system "property".

HTH.
