I am sure I will be corrected by smarter people, but I don't believe
selectionstart is an option for mediaplayer objects. SelectionStart is a
textbox control that allows you to select portions of entries into the
textbox.

When waiting 300 seconds, do you have users looking at something else on the
userform? or is it on a worksheet? You could use the application.wait
function to time the opening of the userform with the WP control on it. I
can't seem to find anything to have the player wait to play.

My last stupid question of the week...

Anyone know the syntax to set the selectionstart for a mediaplayer object in
a userform please? I thought MP.selectionstart = 300 would start it 300
seconds in but apparently not. I'm using WMP 6 btw for various obscure
reasons 8-)

Many thanks in advance
