SoundOut1.Filename

[Justin Lolofie]

Thank you for your help, I am posting another solution to be archived:

The following code was found in the experiment "Grosjean 1996" at
http://step.psy.cmu.edu/scripts/

####################
Dim PlaySound As SoundOut
Dim PlaySoundSoundBuffer As SoundBuffer

Set PlaySoundSoundBuffer = PlaySound.Buffers(1)
PlaySoundSoundBuffer.Filename = c.GetAttrib("SoundFileName")
PlaySoundSoundBuffer.Load
PlaySound.Run
####################


Thanks again!
