hi, please help me build a code that plays wav file continuously while not keyboard hit and that wav file plays only if it is a users birthday.. thanks a lot. please post for reply...
if right(@date,5) = right(@comment,5) flushkb while not kbhit() play "happybday.wav" loop endif
Caution:
It will either finish playing the file after keyboard was hit (assuming that play waits for the file to be played) or it will start bazillions of instances of the wav file (assuming play command doesn't wait for execution)
I am too afraid to test this for ya, so please handle with care
[Maybe a sleep 5 somewhere in the loop is a good idea]
not quite: - end if shall be endif - while NOT get$x would hold script execution until a key was hit - if @description = ($a=RIGHT(@DATE,5)) @description is in fact @comment and the assignment of right to a variable is not neccessary

You don't list where you're from, but as an FYI listing users birthdays in a comment field where others can easily see it might be treading into illegal boundaries in the U.S.
Might want to check/confirm with your legal department that you're not getting yourself into any trouble.
