I'd use the sample you referenced above. Alternative classes can be found

Maybe declare...
Private Declare Auto Function PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" (ByVal
ByVallpszSoundName As _

String, ByVal hModule As Integer, ByVal dwFlags As Integer) As Integer

then call...
On Error Resume Next

Dim fileName As String = String.Concat("N:\ODRC04Data\Sounds\tada.wav")

Const SND_FILENAME As Integer = &H20000

PlaySound(fileName, 0, SND_FILENAME)
