Hi Sharon, Please refer to this great post from Doug Blair on the list back in 2006: http://www.nabble.com/Best-way-to-play-sounds--tf2378023.html#a6644936 He uses a view field, this removes the need of run process actions.
Using Run Process it would be tricky to hide the media player window. -- Met vriendelijke groet / Kind regards Michiel Beijen ______________________________________________________ MANSOLUTIONS Energieweg 60-62 3771 NA Barneveld The Netherlands Tel. +31-(0)612968592 Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet http://bsm.mansolutions.nl On 4/12/07, Menachem, Sharon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
** Hi, ARS 5.1.2 patch 1484 Win 2003 SQL 2000 SP3 I am trying to play a sound when a particular window opens up in the user tool and I am trying to use regular command line syntax to do that. In fact I went so far as to copy the syntax word for word from the admin tool help! This is the syntax in the Run Process: C:\Software\I386\cmd.exe %windir%\system32\mplay32.exe %windir%\Media\chimes.wav As you can see from the log the string is translated correctly but it fails to play the sound - the error: Failed! <ACTL> Process: "C:\Software\I386\cmd.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\mplay32.exe C:\WINDOWS\Media\chimes.wav" <ACTL> **** Failed <ACTL> Return Code: 0l With that very useful error message I am at a loss to know what the problem is. Is there a better way to do this? Your help is as always greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sharon __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___
