Go to START, PROGRAMS, ACCESS, ENTERTANMENT, find Recorder or Sound Recorder...start that application.

If you have a sound card and a microphone, record as many WAV files as you wish.

chakorules,
Thanks! Now how do I create a WAV from a CD? Let's say I want just a portion on a certain CD that I want to send as a WAV.
Thanks again,
SH

You will not want to e-mail a WAV file. You'll want to convert your WAV format to MP3 after you have ripped it from the CD-ROM.

These software tools can help you convert to MP3 format too.

One 4 minute song from CD-ROM in WAV format will be about 100MB. Compress that WAV file to MP3 and you've got about a 3MB file once done with the same quality.

Good Luck.

Keep in mind that, if you use the Windows 9X "Sound Recorder" that comes with the OS as an optional multi-media application, then your wav file is limited to only 60 seconds by default.

If you want to record a wav of longer duration, then you may want to look for a 3rd party app like Steinberg "Wavelab."

Good Luck!
