Actually, the file you need for Windows ACM access, is called
C:\WINDOWS\system32\msacm32.dll under Win XP Pro. If you are using BCB 5, you
simply include the relevant header file. In my case I needed the following 2
declarations in my header file :-

#include <mmreg.h>
#include <msacm.h>

and it linked the EXE with the correct library for me. BCB is just superb in
the way it does so much for you.
