What you need yo do is write your sound file out as a SND resource.  This
can be done directly from SoundEdit.  Sounds that appear in the Sounds
Control Panel are of the type SND and are located in the System file.
If I remember right, you should be able to save directly into the System
from SoundEdit.  Just follow these steps.
 1) Load the sound into SoundEdit
 2) Do a "Save As"
 3) Click on the "Resource" radio button
 4) Open your System file with the open file dialog box.
 5) Give the sound a name and click save.

This should install the sound in the System and you should be able to use it
with the Sounds Control Panel.

In System 7, the sound can then be drug out to the desktop and played by
just double clicking on it.

If you just want to make a double clickable sound in System 7, just follow
the same steps as above except select "New" instead of opening your System
file.  Then save the sound in the new file.  After that you can make it
double clickable by either using the Shareware program called SND Converter
or you can do it your self with ResEdit or File Typer.  All you have to do
is change the file type to "sfil" and the creator to "movr".  After this,
you might have to reboot to get the Finder to recognize the changes.

If you have any other questions or just need clarification just let me
know.
