Oh, my goodness gracious... perhaps you ought to find a newsgroup devoted to
that subject and let the appropriate people know how obstinate WMP12 is
being. Do you suppose it is just a matter of WMP12 does not play or cannot
play WMA files sometimes, rather than it being hard-headed and _refusing_ to
play?
Because this newsgroup's subject is Microsoft Office Access database
software, that's what people here are interested in.
