SoundCli: Demonstrates DDE Client Over Network

SoundCli is a companion sample application for the "Network DDE and Multimedia Combine to Let You Talk to Your Peers" technical article on the Microsoft(R) Developer Network CD. Two sample applications accompany this article: SoundSrv, a Visual Basic(TM) application, demonstrates the internal sounds of the server, and SoundCli, a dynamic data exchange (DDE) client application, enables a WAVE file or live sound to be sent over a network via DDE to a remote machine running the sound server.

The client application (SoundCli) allows you to open WAVE files and play them on the local machine or on a remote machine. It also allows you to send whatever sound input is available on the local machine to the remote machine. For example, if you have a microphone connected to the machine running the client, you can talk live to the remote machine running the server.

The SoundCli application was constructed using the W16APP sample available on the Developer Network CD (Sample Code, Technical Article Samples, Misc. Samples).

To play with the samples, you will need two machines equipped with sound cards running Microsoft Windows(TM) for Workgroups and connected to a network.

SoundCli was built and tested under Microsoft Windows version 3.1 and Microsoft Visual Basic version 2.0.
