Here it is again... 

In the global module declare the API function:

Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "MMsystem" (ByVal lpSound As String, ByVal Flags As Integer) As Integer

Global Const SND_SYNC = 0      'play synchronously (default)
Global Const SND_ASYNC = 1     'play asynchronously

In your program simply put:

Result% = SndPlaySound("TADA.WAV", SND_ASYNC)
