Flash Player has an mp3 codec built in; you don't need an mp3 player.

: )  Guess it helps if you have an mp3 player installed.  : )

Yes, it is.  Thanks for the response.  Do you think the rest looks okay?  I thought I should be able to play the sound by using the <CashSoundEffect  id="cse"..../> tag and then using cse.PlayEffect; I have not yet gotten a sound to come out of this code.
 
The book says that Flex allows us to use the Flash API when creating custom effects.  But, if I look at the Flex Actionscript and MXML API, and look at all the classes included in all the classes, I cannot find the "Sound' class there.  Do you have any ideas about this?

Is the kaching.mp3 in the root of your Flex application?  Basically, is it in the same folder the main application MXML file is in?

Its from the example, Ch 13...(I do have the kaching.mp3)
 
class CashSoundEffect extends mx.effects.Effect
 {
     var soundEffect:Sound;

     public function CashSoundEffect()
     {
         soundEffect = new Sound();
         soundEffect.loadSound("kaching.mp3", true);
     }

     public function PlayEffect():Void
     {
         soundEffect.start();
     }

     public function endEffect():Void
     {
         soundEffect.stop();
     }
 }
 
Then in the main program, I would like to play the effect on a change event;
At top:
<mx:Application...../>
<CashSoundEffect id="cse" duration="5" />
.
.
.
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
 function PlayCashSoundEffect()
 {
 var soundEffect = new CashSoundEffect();
 var priceRegister = new mx.effects.Parallel;
 priceRegister.addChild( soundEffect );
 priceRegister.PlayEffect();
 //soundEffect.PlayEffect();
 //cse.PlayEffect;
 }
]]>
</mx:Script>
.
.
 <mx:ComboBox id="CBApplication"  dataProvider="{APPLICATION}"  change="PlayCashSoundEffect();"/>
 
 
I am very new to Flex.  Not sure how the kaching.mp3 is supposed to be played.  I noticed that "Sound" was not one of the available class types shown in my code editor when I typed in the CashSoundEffect class file (var soundEffect:Sound).
 
Thanks for taking a look!

Nope.  Flash Player can play sounds since... well... a long time ago.

Got some code not working?  Post it.

Would anyone happen to know if there is an add-on that is required in
order to play sound effects with Flex 1.5?

Thanks.
