My question I think is pretty simple but I cannot figure it out..
I work with music I'm a KJ. QUESTION: when i open an excel file I have hundreds and hundreds of song titles & artists names that i've typed in, now what i'm trying to figure out is how can i next to each and every title insert an icon "don't know the right term for it" so I can listen to seconds of each song. I tried figuring it out with hyperlink but that didn't work. I'm sure it's possible to have done because when I go in music sites there is an icon next to song titles that you can actually listen to seconds of each song. I hope what I wrote is clear and understandable I hope someone out there can please help me i've been on it for days with no such luck thks |

Jim Cone's Add-in called ListFiles will create a list in Excel of all the
files in a directory and create a link to each. Click on a song and it will play in Windows Media Player. It will play the whole song tho, so if you want only a few seconds you must somehow create a special directory with files in it that are only a the few seconds long...........or perhaps Jim might be convinced to modify his code to insert the time limit somehow.......I don't know if that can be done or not.

I already suggested to link to the files last week but the OP obviously
didn't want to go that way -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom (No private emails please) "Jim Cone" wrote in message ... mi, John Walkenbach's download will list the details of all of your MP3 files. http://j-walk.com/ss/excel/tips/tip103.htm As far as I know, it will not play any of the songs. My List Files add-in hyperlinks the file name and clicking the file name will open the file, but there is nothing in the add-in to control the play length. Request it by email - it's free - and comes with a one page Word.doc install/use file. Remove XXX from my email address.
