You'd really have to learn about how the .wav files are made & what the
values in them represent.
Here's some problems in general with sound recognition.
1) Even ONE millisecond of silence before 2 perfect recordings is enough to
knock detection off
2) Even the slightest variation in pitch or amplitude (volume) is enough to
know the detection off
Now... these might be simple to counter-act.... if you knew about .wav file
internals.
(which I dont)
Basically you'd have to write an application / control that would scan both
recordings, taking off anything below a certain volume from the start / end
(and any clicks in start/end)...
....then you'd have to basially recreate the wave-form and use fuzzy-logic to
identify if each and every sound on one recording is close enough to the
sound on the other recording and rate the match of the files with some sorta
algoritm that returns a percentage of how well the two files match...
....you've then got to determine what % you will accept as "proof" that the
same message was played.
Have fun ;)

They would be as I have the wav file of what should be played but don't
know where to start with this

news:c8**********@hercules.btinternet.com... Hiya - Quick question.
Can I VB to compare to the contents of two wave files.
[NB] What I am trying to do is create a program that will compare the
message played on a companies IVR with a prestored wav. file so if I call the number the program will return either true or false depending on
what is heard
Thanks
You can but here is the problem. Two wave files of an individual saying
"hello" may sound identical but binary-wise different. Unless the two
files are the *exact* same file, this type of comparison will not work.
