Thanks, Chris. Au contraire, your posts are very clear and not the least confusing.
Interesting though that the answer command that you suggested is still returning false. I'm finding that paying attention to the case sensitivity solved my and .wav files work in the IDE, the simulator and my iPad Thanks to all who responded to my problem. I don't ordinarilly even think about case sensitivity!!
