How do you embed a .wav file?

[DGee]

I have currently got a program that when a button is pressed, a sound is played, however if there is no file, then a beep is played, is there any way to embed an audio file, so i don't have to worry about loose files. I am using VB6.

You can use RC.exe to create a resource file that contains Binary data (in you case, it will be your wav file).
Then, you add the Resource file to your VB6 project.

The caveats and how to do this are shown in this article:
