Thanks for the help.  I have the winmm.dll in my c:\windows\system
directory.  But don't I need some corresponding library file RSXNTDJ can
use?  The "Programming Windows" book by Charles Petzold indicated that
winmm.lib needs to be linked to code calling PlaySound() (this for
Microsoft compilers). I didn't get a winmm.lib w/ RSXNTDJ, and assumed it
may be a diffferent file.  But I've tried the obvious ones and can't
determine which it may be in.  Any further help would be great.

: This function is in winmm.dll. The import lib for this is usually not linked
: in by default so you must specify it when linking. I think you use -lwinmm
: to kink it in but I'm not totally sure for rsxntdj. Hope this helps.
