I am saving a wav file but cannot figure out how to save it so the attributes are read only.

VB

Dim formatteddate As String
       formatteddate = DateTime.Now.ToString("MMM" & "-" & "dd" & "-" & "yyyy" & "-" & "HHmm" & "-" & "ss")
       Dim Filetosave As String = "save recsound " & ("\\bsppd4wiswalld" & "\Recordings" & "\" & formatteddate & ".wav")
       mciSendString(Filetosave, "", 0, 0)

Solution 2

can't get that to work. Correct me if I wrong but isn't that looking to set the attributes in my bin file but the file is being saved directly a folder in my hard drive.
