Hi I'm trying to use DirectSound in Excel VBA. I've gotten it to work in VBA 2010 Express. But when I try to load the reference in VBA -> Tools -> Reference -> Browse and select C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net\DirectX for Managed Code\1.0.2902.0\Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound.dll, Excel/VBA will work on it awhile and then goes in the (Not Responding) and never come back. I have to use the Task Manager to stop it.... Any thoughts... Anyone??
