The control is specifically designed for Visual Basic, but may work in other environments which support ActiveX. This functionality is already part of the EasyX download but Søren broke out the sound part for those who only need the sound (its a much lighter download). It should also work with DX 7 assuming that MS follows their own COM rules. Note: This control is provided as unsupported freeware by Søren Christensen. You are free to use this in your personal development or in commercial applications but may not sell or otherwise distribute this control without the express written consent of the author. This control was originally a shareware offering by Søren and a pretty good one at that. If you find the control useful why not send him a message and let him know you liked it. *Important Notice* '''''''''''''''''' The installation installs only the easysound.ocx. There are no samples or readme included in this particular package. You can find the 'Sound & Games' tutorial on the tutorial page. It includes basic information on using the control. There is also an appendix on the same page with some additional information. The tutorial has some sample programs which use the control and the WindWalker sample on the game page also uses the control. Burt Abreu http://www.VBExplorer.com
