Petr,
yep, corrected that and the error went away. I added "_SNDPLAYFILE "Test.wav", 1" to the end of code at the time and it played the audio just fine; just to verify the compiler linked to the library was working.
Unseen Machine,
Thank you so much for the sample code, it is just what I needed. I also downloaded the manual you attached to this thread. For the time being I only need to do a sample & hold of the audio data from a surface contact mic affixed to a test fixture; the samples stored in the array will undergo a Windowed Discrete Fourier Transform to generate a waterfall plot diagram as part of a vibration analysis of AC motors. I also plan to add a comparative pass/fail analysis to the data array to help spot faulty motors. Doing this in QB64 will cut down my devolvement time considerably.
When I get to the point where the code works to my task I will post the code here on the QB64 forum for other to play with.
Thank again, I am excited about finally being able to move forward with putting some of my vibration analysis ideas to the test.
