Notes: |
Visual CADD™ has several sounds which can be used to signal the user. The .wav files associated with each sound are determined by registry entries and can be edited by the user through the Windows Control Panel. Any sound can be used at any time, however to avoid confusing the user, sounds should be used for their designated purpose. The sounds used are specific to each application. If you are calling
VCSound from a DLL which has been called from VCADD32.EXE, then the Visual CADD™ sounds can be used. When called from an application
other than VCADD32.EXE, the application must define its own sounds
using VCInitSounds. For further information see the documentation
for the Windows API call PlaySound. |
