First, your If statement needs a closing End If statement.

If TextBox2.Text = "1" Then
            TextBox2.BackColor = Color.LawnGreen
            'C:\Users\Nick\Desktop\good_work.play
        End If

Second, you cannot just paste a file's full path, especially one without a file extension and expect nothing but errors.
You have to declare it.

Dim myCoolFile As String = "C:\Users\Nick\Desktop\good_work.wav"

And finally, check out this thread.

If you are try to play the audio player with windows media player then you need the code to start the player which is a system process.
Here is the code to start the windows media player
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("wmplayer.exe")
