I have a SONY IC Recorder ICD-B600. Please advise how I transfer recorded
conversations (grandkids) from the player to my Windows Media Player on my
Dell XP Computer. Thanks very much.

While off topic for this news group, it is fairly easy to record digital
files from any audio recorder.
The recorder must have audio output jacks of some kind, usually headphone
jack will do, line out is best.
Second you must have line in on your sound card of the computer.
Of course you need the proper cable to connect the output of the tape
recorder to the line input of the sound card.
Third, you install and use the free audacity audio editor.
(The sound recorder in Windows is limited to recording about 30 seconds of
sound per file).
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Audacity records your audio and creates a digital file on your computer.
There is a MP3 encoder available. Follow the link on the download page for
Lame MP3 Encoder if you want MP3 capability.
The audio files that audacity creates can be played in Windows Media Player.
Plus you can burn a music CD if you have a CD burner and burner software.
If you double click the speaker icon on the taskbar, you bring up the
Windows Mixer.
The Windows mixer allows you to control the sound level from the sound card
line in jack. (Line in has to be selected in the Options > Properties, tick
record.) Line in must not be muted in the playback part of the Windows
Mixer.
