------------------------------------------------------------- "Hey! I assigned sounds to the functions in the new Windows 3.1 Control Panel, but I never hear anything except Default Beep, Start and Exit! What's the deal???" So many people were asking me this, that I decided to write the enclosed program, called SoundDemo. It's designed to to show that the new 3.1 sound functions do indeed work correctly. This problem is not Windows' fault! In fact, it's up to the programmer of the application in question to specifically call the assigned sound when calling whichever message box he or she is using. This isn't a big deal: in most languages it's accomplished by a single line of code. It's just that before Windows 3.1, these functions didn't exist, so they were never called! Hopefully, as time goes on more and more programmers will correctly implement these functions. To this end, and to increase awareness of the issue, please distribute this program freely! -J.
