I have a Xaudio2 object, and I want to set its sound to a file in a sub folder of my appPath. I tried this, but no luck:

AppPath\sounds\gun\gunshot.wav

How would I do this?

either

AppPath&"\sounds\gun\gunshot.wav"

or

AppPath+"\sounds\gun\gunshot.wav"

if that dosent work try taking out the leading

apppath is an expression and you need to put it together with a string.

you don't need the '\' straight after the appPath (the one before 'sounds'), as the appPath already places one.

You've written the original expression as "Apppath divided by sounds divided by gun..."!

I'd always stick with using & to concatenate strings, because it can also take numbers and add them to strings, whereas + will give an error. So go with:

AppPath & "sounds\gun\gunshot.wav"
