Stop using the Computer class, and use the same instance of a SoundPlayer class instead

Project-Add Reference- in the .Net Option Find Micorsoft.VisualBasic and Add it to the Reference you will find you can using the namespace now;

The SoundPlayer class is new to the .net framework, version 2.0. It provides the StartAsync and Stop methods. Put it as a variable in the SaveStop_Click and the Read_Click voids, and instantiate it. Then, just call the methods. Overall, it would look like this:

private void SaveStop_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Your mciSendString stuff goes here
SoundPlayer player = new SoundPlayer();

player.Stop();

}

private void Read_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SoundPlayer player = new SoundPlayer(@"C:\record.wav");

player.PlayAsync();

}
