Default Playing a sound file from Excel

Hi Larry;
(sFile = Full name of wma file)

Private Sub WMAPlay(sFile$)
If Len(Dir(sFile)) < 8 Then Exit Sub
CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX").URL = sFile
End Sub

Here's what I'm trying to do - any help is appreciated.

I have an Excel workbook with several worksheets. I want an audio file

(in
.wma format) to start playing when I activate a worksheet. I've been able

to
play a .wav file using the sndPlaySound32 dll but it doesn't seem to work
with a .wma file.

Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance,
Larry
