Parameters
IDDevice
Device identifier of the MCI device that is to receive the command message.

uMsg
Command message. For information about command messages, see Command Messages.
fdwCommand
Flags for the command message.
dwParam
Address of a structure that contains parameters for the command message.
Return Values
Returns zero if successful or an error otherwise. The low-order word of the
returned doubleword value contains the error return value. If the error is
device-specific, the high-order word of the return value is the driver identifier;
otherwise, the high-order word is zero. For a list of possible return values, see Constants: MCIERR Return Values.
To retrieve a text description of mciSendCommand return values, pass the return value to the mciGetErrorString function.
Remarks
Error values that are returned when a device is being opened are listed with
the MCI_OPEN command message. In addition to the MCI_OPEN error return values, this function can return the values listed in Constants: MCIERR Return Values.
Use MCI_OPEN to obtain the device identifier specified by the IDDevice parameter.

Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native.
