One last question: Unlike many other people who like to know about adding a sound file (.wav, .mp3), I would like to know how to get my program to just make that *lovely* beep sound that I was all to found of in QBASIC.
I would like to know how to get just a simple beep when the user clicks a wrong button.
Since I am so old school and out of touch with C#, I can only provide an example of it in QBASIC
CLS
BEEP
END
Any simple way of doing this in C#

bah! lol...indeed sounds like it. Why don't you just attach a robotic USB arm to the computer, and use the SerialPorts class to maybe smack the user
(just kidding)

LOL! Kinda reminds me of a program I wrote for QBASIC about 1-1/2 years ago to annoy the *** out of my dad.
Had it so it would constaintly beep until a key was pressed while the screen flashed
WAKE UP!!!!
in 256 colors flashing randomly while he tried to sleep on the couch. Scared the *** out of him! Was well worth the scoulding to see the look on his face.

lol QBASIC -> C#
in .NET 2.0 there is a soundplayer class which you can play sounds, including system default ones but would play on the computer speakers than the computer itself. Would this be suitable
System.Media.SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
to get it to play the beep through the system speaker, you would need to P/Invoke kernel32.dll and use the Beep() API. Import the System.Runtime.InteropServices
[DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
public static extern bool Beep(int freq,int duration);
...
...
Beep(1000,1000);

The beep was not as annoying as I hoped ;)
It works great. If you can think of another system sound thats a ton more annoying, I could use it as an alarm clock! Any ideas
