DAMFLO: one thing you could do for us that would really help us a lot in helping you is to tell us what you want to accomplish. We don't know what it is you want to do, so we don't know how to tell you to do it. What do you want to be able to do?

You mention that you have lots of songs. OK. Are you trying to build a library of them? Do you want to burn your own CD mixes? Do you want to convert to MP3? Do you want to record your own original music? Let us know what you want to do and we'll offer all the help we can. :)

From your post, one might suspect that the software you were "given" are not legal copies. If that is the case, this is probably not a good place to seek help.

Goes to show show, you can find this stuff on some Warez website, and get many dollars worth of software, but it doesn't do you a damn bit of good if you have no clue of how to use it. Go to the warez pages where "your friend" got these programs for you and ask them for some training lessons. Don't come here looking for another freeby.

I've said this in the past. Just because someone gives you a paintbrush and some oil paints, doesn't mean you're Michael Angelo.

you have several subjects to take up. Music is foremost, school should be considered, the internet is a vast resource, the subjects are way beyond a mere software forum. (although this is an excellent one!) like MyST said, LOL

also, plz remove the Caps Lock key from your keyboard. it's very annoying to have to read A POST WRITTEN LIKE THIS! IT'S LIKE YOUR SHOUTING AT US AND WE'RE NOT DEAF THANK YOU!.

besides, if you don't know what you want to do with Sound Forge then you don't really need the program. finally, if your copy is LEGAL you should have a manual which explains everything.
