Rocky,

Couldn't you just reference the windows .wav files already on the 
machine?...when the db launches...it finds the wave files and stores the 
path...when you click...it 'CLICKS'...I think most installs would have these 
files...if not error handle them...lol...

Just a thought?

Thanks,

mark
