I spent ages once trying to get this to work on windows without success. Appenders are available (as you found) which work on unix/linux but with all the windows ansi hacks I could find, I still couldn't get it to work on windows xp.
My advice would be to not bother (unless anyone else has the solution) :-( I've used a SoundAppender in a development environment to highlight error messages with humorous results dependant on the choice of .wav file used :-) Regards Andy > -----Original Message----- > From: Frank W.
