Get File Heading Info - Duration

[Roger]

I would like to access the "Duration" that is listed in file information
for files such as "*.mp3" but I have no idea what commands to use. Any
guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Roger

Simply open the file for normal reading, such as with the VCL FileOpen()
function, or the Win32 API CreateFile() function. Then read the header
bytes using FileRead() or ReadFile(). You can go to http://www.wotsit.org
to look up the MP3 format spec.
