Herewith is his reply to my question (he requested that I post it for him): ----------- there are currently two types of "snd " resources. type 1 is the kind that will play in the sound CDEV in the control panel. type 2 is the Bill Atkinson version which will only play in Hypercard and/or the MiniServant. /*--------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ /* NOTE: I am _NOT_ an Apple representative.

The "Sound Off II" INIT file has no problem playing either type, so it must be possible.... Also, how does the Sound CDEV set the system beep to be a given 'snd ' resource? --Rich { .mailsig (whoops!)
