• Visual Studio Express Editions Using Sounds from My Resources

  Hi. I wonder if someone can help me. I'm having a problem getting the music coding working for my program. You see, I'm trying to make my program so that instead of referencing external locations on my hard drive in order to load .wav files, the program imports them into the "My Resources" folder, so that when I go to publish the program, the music files are published along with the rest of the required files. However, it's not working. I can successfully add the .wav sound files into the "My Resources" part of VB, but then when I input the coding into Form 1, when I run it, I hear nothing at all. This is the type of coding I'm using, but the music doesn't play when the form loads, and VB won't let me put th ...Show All
