Private Sub PlayTheSound(ByVal WhatSound As String)
If Dir(WhatSound, vbNormal) = "" Then
' WhatSound is not a file. Get the file named by
' WhatSound from the Windows\Media directory.
WhatSound = Environ("SystemRoot") & "\Media\" & WhatSound
If InStr(1, WhatSound, ".") = 0 Then
' if WhatSound does not have a .wav extension,
' add one.
WhatSound = WhatSound & ".wav"
End If
If Dir(WhatSound, vbNormal) = vbNullString Then
' Can't find the file. Do a simple Beep.
Beep
Exit Sub
