Defining current message

When you play a message or a list of messages, the message or message list becomes the current message for pausing, resuming, and repositioning. The current message is associated with the context handle. The current message has a current position, as illustrated:

Using current position

To...	Use...
Remove a specified number of milliseconds of data at the current position in the current message	vceErase
Start playing from the current position in the current message	vcePlay
Read data at the current position in the current message	vceRead
Start recording at the current position in the current message	vceRecord
Set the current position in the current message	vceSetPosition
Write data at the current position in the current message	vceWrite

Using current message

Play one message from a specified voice object	vcePlayMessage
Copy a message from one voice object to another	vceRecordMessage

If a voice object containing a message in the current message (list) is closed, a current message no longer exists. Play or record is stopped, if it is active.

Note: The current message is not affected when a call hangs up.
