You can use the following code to embed any wave file (or images, executables, or any other file, for that matter):
R E B O L [Title: "Binary Resource Embedder"]
system/options/binary-base: 64
uncompressed: read/binary to-file request-file/only
editor compress to-string uncompressed

thanks for the code nick. what I am looking for is to make my PC beep using the onboard speaker, not using a sound card. Just like in the old DOS machines. you could use the ASCII bell code to make sound on your PC.
the ascii code for the bell is Ctrl G, i tried that with rebol but couldn't the beep to sound
Anyone has tried to use the ASCII bell code ?

I think Microsoft has removed that from recent versions of the Windows API (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679277(VS.85).aspx)
This example is in my tutorial, but does not work in newer versions of Windows:
R E B O L []
; The "kernel32.dll" is a standard dll in all Windows installations:
lib: load/library %kernel32.dll
play-sound: make routine! [
return: [integer!] pitch [integer!] duration [integer!]
] lib "Beep"
for hertz 37 3987 50 [
print rejoin ["The pitch is now " hertz " hertz."]
play-sound hertz 50
]
free lib
halt
