Answer 1

If you are wanting to embed your wave file into your program, go to your Project Properties --> Resources --> Select Audio as the type then select Add Resource and select your Audio File. This will add the Audio File to your Resources Directory. Once you have done this you can right click on the File in the Resources folder and select Properties and change the Build Action to Embedded Resource.

To access the file you would do something like this:

System.Media.SoundPlayer sp = new System.Media.SoundPlayer(Properties.Resources.tada);
sp.Play();
