decoding a sound file

[Lester75]

Hi, I might be better off in a programming forum but this topic is certainly soundfile related.

Maybe someone can help.

 

I need to know the data types of the elements stored in a .WAV files HEADER so I can store those values as that data type (integer or char).

 

for example I can store the files media type (RIFF for an ms media file) because I know that its the first four elements of the header stored in 1 byte (char),but after this I would be guessing.

 

Can anyone help here?

 

anyway, thanks.
