Excerpt of article text...

For this month's beginner column I would like to discuss the NotePlayer Control Class. As usual, the first thing you should do to familiarize yourself with a class or feature in REALbasic is to use the Language Reference (LR) Guide, accessed by the Command-1 key combination. The NotePlayer description indicates that it plays musical notes via QuickTime. Since we can trust that all Macintosh computers come with QuickTime, we should be good to go. Sorry, Microsoft users, I don't do Windows.
