Hello! I transferred a function from a client program into a windows service. At the client Programm I used PlaySound(WavFile, NULL, SND_FILENAME | SND_ASYNC | SND_LOOP); to play a wav file.
At the service there's no output at all. Anyone knows a solution like Setting Default Audio Device via program or another function that could make it work?
Or is there no possibility to do such things?

I would be doubtful about the ability existing. Can you imagine the consequences if it did?
You'd have all sorts of services deciding that they are the One True Service, making a hullaballoo, and no UI to shut them up. Volume settings are on a per user basis too, I think. So, which user profile do you use?
If noone's logged on, who's going to pay ettention anyway?
I suggest you have a really tiddle client program for the service to communicate with, and let *that* program make the noise - or a balloon tooltip, etc. Then "I" can kill it.
This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. You wouldn't be the first...

That's probably a good thing.

You're right in saying that it's not so bad that it is this way, but how I would use the service it makes sense in my opinion.
I found a solution to solve my problem, but it's not as good as if I could do the action needed in the service.
The difficulty is that one or more programs consume the service but only one user must play the sound ( a telephone ring).
So I tell one instance via application logic to do it. Quick and dirty  Ty for your helpful comments.

i need to get a file from windows XP machine to my XP desktop, in both machines IIS services running. I have no error in InternetConnect(), InternetOpen(). But FtpOpenFile() fails and returns "file unavailable error". Following is the code i did in FtpOpenFile,
FtpOpenFile(hConnect, TEXT("C:/good.txt"), GENERIC_READ, FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY, NULL);
Anybody have any idea to overcome this. Somebody respond ASAP please.

Does the file exist? Have you tried a (double) backslash instead?

So now you have something akin to:
if (FtpOpenFile(hConnect, TEXT("C:\\good.txt"), GENERIC_READ, FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY, NULL) == NULL)
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();

this is also didn't work out.

What does GetLastError() return?
"Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it." - Ellen Goodman

Which equates to ERROR_INTERNET_EXTENDED_ERROR. Did you then call InternetGetLastResponseInfo() to get the error text?

Tried as InternetGetLastResponseInfo(lpdwError, lpszBuffer, lpdwBufferLength);
cout<<lpszBuffer;
if this is correct, it have 00394BD8.

it is didn't work. if i use InternetGetLastResponseInfo() & ran the program means, it breaks the code.
But FtpOpenFile() returns the error code as 6 now. where can i refer the error codes?

So you have something like:
if (FtpOpenFile(hConnect, TEXT("C:\\good.txt"), GENERIC_READ, FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY, NULL) == NULL)
{
DWORD dwError = GetLastError();
if (ERROR_INTERNET_EXTENDED_ERROR == dwError)
{
TCHAR szErrorText[256];
DWORD dwSize = sizeof(szErrorText);
InternetGetLastResponseInfo(&dwError, szErrorText, &dwSize);
}

FtpOpenFile() returns a handle to indicate success, and NULL to indicate failure. Since 6 is not NULL, I can only assume that FtpOpenFile() is not failing.

I missed out some FTP configurations in Destination m/c, so now the FtpOpenFile() works fine.
The FtpGetFile() throws 12110(ERROR_FTP_TRANSFER_IN_PROGRESS) error. Do i need to include some kind of delay after FtpOpenFile()?. To debug this i tried to login thro FTP to the source m/c(other m/c) - it is success. But i wan not able to login thro FTP to my m/c from the source m/c. I feel this may causing the problem. Do i need to set any configurations anything else mentioned in "https://engineering.purdue.edu/ECN/Support/KB/Docs/FTPSetUpWindows" and "http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-6345-5031102.html".

After you've called FtpOpenFile(), the only operations you can do are
InternetReadFile(), InternetWriteFile(), InternetCloseHandle(), or FtpFindFirstFile().
Once you've closed the file you can use FtpGetFile().
FtpGetFile() is meant to be used by itself - you don't need to (and can't) open the file first.
You use FtpOpenFile()/InternetReadFile()/InternetCloseHandle() when you want more control
over the file transfer.

Yes, you are correct. Now upload and download both works fine.
Thanks a lot Mark, David and all.

Without seeing any code it's hard to say what your problem is, but the biggest reason for color loss would be an incorrect HDC. When dealing with bitmaps, I usually get the desktops DC and make a compatible DC from that, this should then enable you to have access to the full color range.

WalderM ...this should then enable you to have access to the full color range.
Are there other DCs that wouldn't?
