I've heard about mci strings: dodgy, I gather. Thus doesn't work:

but [EMAIL PROTECTED]("open cdaudio") does.
I'll need to experiment to see if the notification stuff works
in C before I try it in pp.

Oops, that should have crashed or at least thrown an error message.
You need one spec for each argument, _plus_ one for the return type.
Should be
dll.call("winmm|mciSendStringA|s ui ui ui ui",sCmd,0,0,CallbackWnd)
Will hunt for my error.
Note also that in context, where you're not writing back to sCmd,
you don;t have to pass in the var name, jus the var value.
