Why Is Playing Music In Vba Excel Not Working

To play music in VBA Excel, you can use the Microsoft Windows Media Player control. However, please note that the Windows Media Player control is not available by default in Office 2013 or later versions.

Here is an example of how you can play music in VBA Excel:

    
      ' Add a Reference to "Windows Media Player" under Tools > References
  
      Sub PlayMusic()
          ' Create a new instance of the Windows Media Player control
          Dim mediaPlayer As WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer
          Set mediaPlayer = New WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer
  
          ' Specify the path to the music file
          Dim musicPath As String
          musicPath = "C:\Path\To\Your\Music.mp3"
  
          ' Set the URL of the music file
          mediaPlayer.URL = musicPath
  
          ' Play the music
          mediaPlayer.controls.play
      End Sub
    
  

Make sure to replace “C:\Path\To\Your\Music.mp3” with the actual path to your music file. Additionally, you need to add a reference to the “Windows Media Player” library by navigating to Tools > References in the VBA Editor.

Once you run the “PlayMusic” macro, it will create a new instance of the Windows Media Player control, set the URL to your music file, and then play the music. You can modify the code to stop, pause, or control other aspects of the media player as per your requirements.
