so paring it down to basics, iis is the actual web server. it'll be listening for requests on whatever port (80, 443 etc) and then based on your configuration will handle those requests accordingly (that might be serving a file from disk, calling a cgi application or handing the request on to a .NET application).

- you'll end up publishing the application (or just using the build output) and you'll have to RAR it separately - generally people keep track of the state of their source code using a version control system (VCS). git is by far the most popular VCS in use these days

your click handler will end up something like

using (var player = new SoundPlayer("path_to_sound.wav"))
{
    player.Play();
}

using (var player = new SoundPlayer("path_to_sound.wav"))
{
    player.Play();
}

so you want to make sure that the SoundPlayers are disposed of (you'll see what that means when you read the link)

yeah but another thing to bear in mind is that playing sound uses external resources which is why these SoundPlayers implement IDisposable

if you're using the GUI i believe you'd need to go back onto the button, go to its properties and remove the handler there. you can then just delete the code.

the event already exists (it's part of the framework), you're talking about generating an event handler and wiring it up
