Yes!

What Danzer was trying to tell you is that on wotsit.org, you can get a 
description of nearly all audio type/file used. Most of these files have 
a header containing the number of samples/sec, the number of channels, 
the number of bits/samples, the total length of the file. With these 
data, you can calculate yourself the duration of your audio file.

Since the duration is also given in the properties of the file (when you 
right click on the file in explorer), there must be a way to ask windows 
directly. Probably using com, ole or whatever. I can't tell you how to 
do that though, I leave it to others.
