    Soundwaves


    On opening the application I want a sound wave to play. I searched the net and found one set of advice, but no luck yet.

    Just run a suitable function in autoexec macro but personally I think it will drive users mad after a while.

    Attached is an example with all the code you need and a truly irritating sound just to make the point

    Truly irritating, indeed! Just to give you a heads up...my budgies are talking about getting together and filing a class action lawsuit against you!

    You were warned....
    If you didn't want to listen to it, you didn't need to take the bait ....

    And if you thought that was irritating, try listening to the sounds in this countdown timer of mine

    Scroll down the page for that free download
    There are about 20 'alarm' sounds to choose from
