In there I discussed 2 methods for changing sounds. The first is the approved manner and the second is a short cut method that I devised myself.

Once the sound is added to the sound scheme, it will have to be saved with a different name other than the name of the original sound scheme that was altered. So Yvonne or anyone else adding sounds to your sound scheme, after you have finished adding your sound / sounds and you are asked to save, select yes and use your firrst name, as an example, to name the new sound scheme, then tab to apply, spacebar, and finally tab to okay and press enter / spacebar. If I am incorrect about the additional saving step, someone please correct me. I only state this because I have had to do this many times when altering sound schemes. Hope this helps. Take care.
