All the components of Microsoft Office are programmable via a programming
language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Is Windows Media Player
11.0 programmable? I would like to be able to programmatically open MP11.0
and burn a playlist specified in code to an audio CD.

Thanks!

Hi Steve,

I believe WMP is programmable - my reply to this post: [http://
groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsmedia.player.skins/
browse_frm/thread/8e1ccf5cda6a7695] gives a URL for the WMP SDK which
is something you will need for better info.
Basically you should be able to create an instance of the WMP object
(much like you can Excel or Word) and call its methods etc.

Cheers

I don't believe that the SDK as available on http://msdn.microsoft.com has
the ability to burn CDs.

You may want to see if there's a public IMAPI SDK... ?

See http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info.
