Where could the message 

  'No MSI-device opened'

  (the german text is 'Kein MCI-Ger�t ge�ffnet) 

comes from?
 
As it seems it does not occur directly when calling a methode. e.g.
MyMediaPlayer->Play(), but sometimes afterwards, when an event has
been completed and the applicaition is waiting for another user-input.


Thanks,

Michael

It comes from Windows OS. You cannot trap it, and I've tried many times! You 
just have to live with it.

Thanks for your answer.

Perhaps a littel unspecific, I meant, which function-call (or property
change) could lead (finally) to this message?

Thanks,

MediaPlayer1->Open(); would cause this, or if that worked, 
MediaPlayer1->Play();
I would wrap both with a try...catch block, but as I said before, it doesn't 
seem to catch all MCI error messages.
