The only time I remember having problems playing sounds is when I was getting too low on memory to load the sounds. The sound manager will not load part of the sound, play it and load the rest. It's all or nothing Check your available memory and see if you have enough to play the sound or just increase your memory requirements, especially when running debugger. The resource manager is case sensitive and so is the SOUND statement. You have to watch for spaces. Here's an idea. Replace the sound with another of the same size or larger and see if the problem still exists. Maybe the problem is with the sound itself. That's all I can think of for now, W. -----Original Message----- From: David Cottrell [SMTP:David.Cottrell@...] Sent: Wednesday, July 08, 1998 8:59 PM To: futurebasic@... Subject: Re: Bugs bugs bugs (FB & PG) I've made a discovery - of sorts. If I run part of this program in FB for just a short time (play some sounds etc), and then quit, and rerun, on the second run I always get an 'error' warning from the debugger that I have lost 24 k of memory. Any ideas? I have tried both suggestions for playing the sounds but to no effect.
