David, I'm looking for ones other than those that come with XP. For example, I think I had downloaded a .wav file that had a male computer voice saying something like "It was a pleasure serving you, mistress" that I wanted to use as the sound for when the computer turns off instead of the one that reminds me of an orchestra in a movie theatre that XP uses. I lost that one if I did have it. It doesn't have to be that one-just something I like to help differentiate the Windows turn off sound from the one Open Book 7.02 uses when you exit the program.
I used to have one that I used when I emptied the recycle bin that sounded like a toilet flushing, but that one got lost in the shuffle. If the ones you have are anything like those, I'd like to give them a listen. Thanks, Margaret "David Ferrin" wrote: Margaret, are you looking for a collection of sound files for XP? If so then I can accommodate you very easily today in fact. Since I am using XP and have all of the sounds that were included with it, I'll zip them up and send them on their way after lunch. Just let me know is all.
