I wish to be able to eject either a pc card or compact flash card
programmatically

Is there any way to achieve this in with C#?

TIA

It was a google link:

Here's a copy of what it says:

A quick & dirty solution with PInvoke to MCI could be:

//
==========================================================================
private void btnEject_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int ret = mciSendString( "set cdaudio door open", null, 0, IntPtr.Zero );
}

private void btnClose_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int ret = mciSendString( "set cdaudio door closed", null, 0,
IntPtr.Zero );
}

[DllImport( "winmm.dll", EntryPoint="mciSendStringA",
CharSet=CharSet.Ansi )]
protected static extern int mciSendString( string lpstrCommand,
StringBuilder lpstrReturnString, int uReturnLength, IntPtr
hwndCallback );
//
