Im somewhat familiar with getting the wav sound to sound, there is only
one problem. When my live data keeping changing I cannot get the sound
to stop.

I would like to stop the alarm once it sounds and then it will engage
again at either the top of the hour (eg. 10:00) or the half hour (eg.
10:30).

Is there anyone out there that can point me in the right direction. I
would REALLY appreciate the help.

Joe,

You don't say how you're playing the wav. I'll presume it's with PlaySound.
Seems to me I had success stopping it by calling it again with a short
silent wav. I stopped using it early on because it's slow to respond, and I
use it in live shows. I now launch Winamp from Excel, which starts playing
virtually instantly, and can play mp3 files too.
