One .WAV file is used for all reminders. For anything else you'd have to
code your own reminder interceptor event handler and then call the Win32 API
procedure that plays a sound, using whatever .WAV file you wanted based on
the type of the item that fired the reminder.
See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/sendreminder.htm for a code example of
intercepting the reminder event. The Win32 API call you need to use to play
a sound looks like this:
Public Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "WINMM.DLL" Alias _
"sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As _
Long) As Long
Public Const SND_SYNC = &H0
Public Const SND_ASYNC = &H1
Public Const SND_NODEFAULT = &H2
Public Const SND_LOOP = &H8
Public Const SND_NOSTOP = &H10
Public Sub PlayReminderSound()
Dim SoundName As String
Dim wFlags As Integer
Dim X As Integer
On Error Resume Next
SoundName = g_strReminderSound 'file name and path to .WAV file
If SoundName <> "" Then
wFlags = SND_ASYNC Or SND_NODEFAULT
X = sndPlaySound(SoundName, wFlags)
End If
End Sub
