[AccessD] Embedding a WAV file

Rocky,

Actually looking at my machines...they all seem to be in different 
folders...and named differently.  Maybe not such a good idea after 
all...unless you wanted the app to search for the file when it 
launches...and then store the path to reference later?

Thanks,

Mark
