I have a problem with audio

private sub playing(Byval somefilename as string)
My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.somefilename,AudioPlayMode.Background)
end sub


private sub choose
if good then
playing("wav1.wav")
else
playing("wav2.wav")
end sub

wav1.wav and wav2.wav are audio files that I put in resources
and good is a boolean variable
but in my.comp..... somefilename is not accepted and gives a error
Is there a solution?
Thanks for any response

Instead of using My.Crap, use the direct way to System.Media.SoundPlayer
You can pass a Stream to it's constructor. Use Assembly.GetManifestresourceStream
to open the stream.

That's because those are resources and not files, which is what the Play
method expects. This artical shows how to use resources for what you want to
do.
