No, .WAV files are raw 8-bit samples, whereas, .MOD files are a collection of
samples with assigned notes and sequences to make the sound...a .MID is similar
but you'll have to have a preset collection of "voices" for the .MID to use, as
it contains instructions for a MIDI keyboard/sequencer/other device...

There should be an OS/2 .MOD player out sometime soon...Untill then, get a copy 
of the SBOS2.SYS driver and wait...I'm connected to SBCNet which gives me access
to all the latest .MOD players, etc. so when it's out, I'll be glad to Zip it
up, UU-encode it and send it to you E-Mail...I'll announce it here and you can
then let me know how you'd like it sent to you...

Later...
