I want to open with Delphi my own program (like music [mp3 for example]).
I got one button and one textbox...
I want the button do something like that:

ShellExecute(Handle, 'Open', 'C:\lol\pwnt\'+Edit1.Text+'.mp3', nil, nil, SW_SHOWNORMAL);

It tells me that there's an errors.
The errors are:

[Error] Unit1.pas(408): Incompatible types: 'String' and 'PAnsiChar'
[Fatal Error] Project1.dpr(7): Could not compile used unit 'Unit1.pas'

What do I have to do to fix this problem...?
Thx :]

you must use .res files to open mp3 files (if you want it to be played on all computers, not only yours) else you need a Tmediaplayer component before you can play .mp3's

Kevinnn, stop spewing nonsense. You DON'T need to embed them in your application, how do you think all media players work when you tell them to play an external mp3 file? embed it in a resource file and recompile themselves?!
