Visual Basic 2010: How to start Windows 7 Sound Application on Recording Tab
Comment
1 / 1
To start the Windows 7 Sound Application and navigate to the Recording tab using Visual Basic 2010, you can make use of the Process.Start
method to execute the mmsys.cpl
control panel command.
Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to achieve this:
vbImports System.Diagnostics
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
' Start the Windows Sound Application and navigate to the Recording tab
Process.Start("control", "mmsys.cpl,,1")
End Sub
End Class
In this code, we use Process.Start
to execute the control
command with the argument mmsys.cpl,,1
. The mmsys.cpl
command launches the Sound control panel, and ,,1
specifies the index of the Recording tab to navigate to.
When you click the Button1
control in your Windows Forms application, it will start the Sound Application and display the Recording tab.
Please note that this code is specific to Windows 7, and the control panel command may vary on different versions of Windows.
