Playing audio from within VB

Hey,

I'm using visual basic 6.

I have a MS Access database (accessing it via ADO) which has in it an
OLE Object column. The column ("songData") holds MP3s... I was
wondering how I could extract this data from the database and play it,
without first writing the data to the hard drive.

IE, load the file into memory (some variable somewhere) and have some
media player control play the audio directly from the variable.

Do you guys know of any controls that can do this? Should I load the
entire MP3 data into a variable, or should I "stream" it in? (But the
bigger question is which activex to use...)

Thanks in advance,

Burak
