For playing system sounds rather than sounds stored in WAV files, it is better to declare this function as follows:
DECLARE INTEGER PlaySound IN winmm;
LONG pszSound, INTEGER hmod, LONG fdwSound
Below is FoxPro equivalent to sndAlias("S", "W") macro (SND_ALIAS_SYSTEMWELCOME) :
nSoundId = BITOR(buf2dword(PADR("S",4,CHR(0))),;
BITLSHIFT(buf2dword(PADR("W",4,CHR(0))),8)) && returns 22355
This will play the SND_ALIAS_SYSTEMWELCOME sound:
= PlaySound(22355, 0, BITOR(SND_ALIAS_ID, SND_ASYNC))
