Adding an embedded sound?
My requirement is to embed (not link) a sound file in a *PowerPoint*
PPT file. I duly enquired in microsoft.public.powerpoint, but I'm confused by the replies that I *cannot* embed an MP3 or WMA, because I appear to have done so successfully! On the assumption that the object-embedding facility in Excel 2000 is similar to that in PowerPoint 2000, I just repeated the exercise in Excel to double-check. That too was successful. The test XLS file I used grew from 14 KB to 1667 KB after embedding a 1276 KB MP3 file. And then I deleted the music file, yet the XLS still played it. Similar behaviour to PowerPoint. Got the same result in Word 2000. IMO that seems conclusive evidence that the replies I had were mistaken, and that you *can* embed an MP3. Am I correct please? I still have some other detail points to resolve about using this sound in PowerPoint, but I'd like to be sure I understands this fundamental issue before I press on. -- Terry, West Sussex, UK |
