An Alarm in VB2008 [Need Help]

[Chief]

so, ive got this alarm i'm making for a friend and its goin nicely. i just dont know how to get the mediaplayer to play the alarm noise... anyone know the media player controls and can help me?

here is my code so you can see it:

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub ToolStripButton1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

    End Sub

    Private Sub ExitToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ExitToolStripMenuItem.Click
        Me.Close()
    End Sub

    Private Sub Label2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label2.Click

    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Label2.Text = TimeOfDay
        Timer1.Enabled = True
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs)
        Label2.Text = TimeOfDay
    End Sub

    Private Sub Timer1_Elapsed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs) Handles Timer1.Elapsed
        Label2.Text = TimeOfDay
        If Label2.Text = TextBox1.Text Then
            WMP

        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
       
    End Sub

    Private Sub WMP_Enter(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles WMP.Enter

    End Sub
End Class

its a very simple code yet i have no idea how to finish it because  i have never used a media player

If just playing a sound is your goal, take a look at this article.  It might help you some.

You shouldn't even need the media player as you're using it, if that article does what it says.

that article wotn help me. its out of date because im using VB2008 and some of the code of the previous versions does not work in 08.

 

[Zethus]

some older articles should still work because you may have to change the code a little... it's still .net

 

[Alexander Morou]

Please at least try something before saying 'it won't work'.

Remember, unless they add an ObsoleteAttribute to a type, it should still work the same way it did.  The reason for this in versions 2.0+ is for backwards compatibility.
