reading from a mic

Hi everyone.

This is my first visit here... I wanted to ask how can I read from the microphone using windows api.
I remember that doing it in linux was as easy as reading from a file , however I didn't manage to find anything about micrphones in windows.
What I'm trying to do is a simple echo program , so I prefer "on the fly" and not saving stuff in files.

Thanks,

This should really be in the Windows programming part of the board.

but try this, maybe this can help you:
