'-------------------------------------------------------------------
' Here's how to play an .AVI file via API
' Declare this API:
Declare Function mciSendString& Lib "MMSYSTEM" (ByVal pstrCommand$,
ByVal lpstrReturnStr As Any, ByVal wReturnLen%, ByVal CallBack%)
'Add this code to the appropriate event:
Dim CmdStr$
Dim ReturnVal&
' Modify path and filename as necessary
CmdStr$ = "play G:/VFW_CINE/AK1.AVI"
ReturnVal& = mciSendString(CmdStr$, 0&, 0, 0&)
' To play the AVI 'fullscreen' append to CmdStr$:
CmdStr$ = "play G:/VFW_CINE/AK1.AVI fullscreen"
