I have about 50 sounds (snd) in a Suitcase file that is being opened at
startup. The Sound cdev doesn't see them, showing only the four standard
sounds, but SndControl does. Any ideas?
This is System 6.0.7 on a IIci. Thanks loads!

Sorry. Why? Was this a mistake, or a sinister plot to make life difficult for Suitcase users, or what?

It probably wedged itself down low inside the Resource Manager to make UseResFile(0) search it's resource maps in addition to the System resource map. Even with the old Sound control panel, it would only show the sounds in the System file unless you were running Suitcase, or something similar... (I didn't mean to imply that the old control panel looked in other places besides the System file and the new one didn't.) -- Dean Yu Blue Meanie, Negative Ethnic Role Model, etc. Apple Computer, Inc. My opinions and so on and so forth... I have nothing to do with Suitcase or it's author. I was just using it as an example because Rich mentioned it.
