Play Sound with CommandButton

[thomas.schoenfelder]

How can I play a wav file when a CommandButton from the Control Toolbox
is clicked

I've tried this but didn't work because CommandButtons don't accept
action Settings

ActivePresentation.Slides("Slide1").Shapes("CommandButton1").ActionSettings(ppMouseClick).SoundEffect.ImportFromFile
"MyWave.wav"

Why are you using a control (command button) instead of a PPT object (many
available in the drawing tool bar)?

I'm using this Button click event to blank out textboxes and manipulate
other shapes.
All I want is to play a sound when the textboxes (drawing tool bar)
disappear.
so i thought it's easiest to just run a soundplay macro when the button
is clicked
