[AccessD] Click Sound

Hi Rocky:

I guess you have checked out this old goodie?

http://access.mvps.org/access/api/api0011.htm

The ony other way I know of making a sound is through a browser interface.
Example:

<audio id="bark" preload="auto" autobuffer>
	<source src="audio/dogbark.mp3" type="audio/mp3">
	<source src="audio/dogbark.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
	<!-- now include flash fall back -->
</audio>

I understand that Access can dynamically attach web sound and audio sources
but I have not played with those features. It is most likely version
dependant.

Can you used a hyperlink from Access to connect to and play a wave/sound
file? (Have not tried this yet.)

Jim

"anyone who has sat next to a person on some sort of public transport"

Truly the case for gun control...

Heh.. I am glad you mentioned the why bit.  I was wondering why on earth you
would want a darn "Click" sound anyway.  A bit like leaving the 'beep' on
your mobile phone keypad.  Surely that would annoy the crap out of you in
less than 5 mins of use.

First thing I do on any of my tech toys is minimise the clicks, beep and
pings.  But maybe that is just me...

Mind you, anyone who has sat next to a person on some sort of public
transport (Plane, Train, Bus) whilst they 'beep, beep, beep' out a long text
message character at a time...  well, enough said I think...

Beep actually Dings.  I think it's a Windows setting, though.  So I suppose
it could be changed to click.  The user wants click. Doesn't want the users
to have to change Windows settings. (sigh..users...gotta love 'em)

If nothing else works out maybe you could use Beep.

That's the way I used to do it.  Problem is now it has to start a player
like VLC every time you play a file.  In the old, old days there was a
little clicker in the comp and you could make it click.

Dear List:
 
Is it possible to have a click sound when you click a control like a command
button or into a text box?
