Generalsome general questions about sounds Pin

Hello,

I have a few general questions about how to go about implementing sounds in my application.

I have created a dictionary program with english and spanish words. It uses an Access database to store the dictionary information.

I want to record sound clips of all of the spanish words (about 600 of them), and allow the user to push a button to hear the pronunciation of the word. First of all, does anyone have any opinions on what the best way to implement sound would be. Should I use wav files and use the playsound from the Windows API, or should I use DirectSound, or should I try something else like the nBASS library? I basically just want the easiest way to play sounds, and I don't want to take up too much space on the user's computer.

Also, would it be best to embed the sounds in the database, or to have them as external files in the application folder?

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!
Blake
