Problem/Question/Abstract:

How to eject and close a CD-ROM drive

Answer:

Solve 1:

To open the CD-ROM:


mciSendString('Set cdaudio door open wait', nil, 0, handle);


To close the CD-ROM:


mciSendString('Set cdaudio door closed wait', nil, 0, handle);


Remember to include the MMSystem unit in your uses clause. Also note that you will get a Blue Screen on certain hardware, if you use this code.
