Default Playing an audio file in Excel

What suggestions have you tried. Maybe you just need help getting one of
these suggestions to work.


You will need to put the .wav file into the workbook. You will also need a
macro. I think the right way is for the macro to call the window media
player DLL which has an option to play a file without displaying the media
player when running the file. I would like to see the other option you were
given which may be simpler before I attempt to write a macro.

Hi. I have Excel 2007 and use Vista. I have a spreadsheet where I would
like it to play a certain .wav file every time it is opened. I want whoever
I email the spreadsheet to, to also hear the sound file. I do not want it to
open iTunes or Media Player when it plays. I've seen a couple of suggestions
but have yet to get anything to work. Can someoen help?
