The simpliest was would be to do something like the following: PROCEDURE PlayMySound; CONST kMySoundID = -4065; VAR h : Handle; stat : OSErr; BEGIN IF TrapAvailable(_SndPlay, ToolTrap) THEN BEGIN h := GetResource('snd ',kMySoundID); IF h <> NIL THEN BEGIN HLock(h); stat := SndPlay(NIL,h,kSYNC); HUnlock(h); END; END; END; -- michael -- Michael Peirce -- outpost!peirce@claris.com -- Peirce Software -- Suite 301, 719 Hibiscus Place -- Macintosh Programming -- San Jose, California 95117 -- & Consulting -- (408) 244-6554, AppleLink: PEIRCE

SndPlay will do that for you. You do have to lock it if you play it asynchronously, because the SndPlay call will usually return before the sound is finished. It doesn't hurt to play it safe, however. Larry

I've been having a hell of a time trying to get the Sound Manager to play a 'snd' resource. It either crashes, plays the sound only once when called, or doesn't play it at all. Please, help if you can. (Send sample code if you have any).

Please, help >if you can. (Send sample code if you have any). Thanks a lot, If you can, get a hold of the Usenet Macintosh Programmer's Guide (UMPG) which Matt Mora so thoughtfully compiled and posted to sumex for us. I am anxiously awaiting to get a hold of that Sample Code note from apple that will have a bunch of handy examples in it, but Mark Johnson at Apple said it won't be available by FTP until ftp.apple.com is up and running :-( --mike
