Audio file captured in Producer will not open in Windows Media

[Lynda]

Made an audio only file in Windows Producer and the file is in the correct
folder in My Audios Files. The file appears in Producer as a Windows Media
File [.wma}, it has the WM icon and says it is filed appropriately. I saved
the Project and gave the Project a different name.

I went to Windows Media to open the file to play and Media cannot open the
file because it doesn’t recognize the format. If Producer saved the file as a
..wma file why can’t Media open the file?

When I tried to open the file in Media, it is not apparent in a My Audios
folder when I pick a .wma file type to open; however, when I pick an All File
[*.*] there the files are with a Producer Icon. Why does it appear as a .wma
file in Producer and a Producer file in Media?

I tried copying and saving the file with a .wma extension, but that didn’t
work. I tried to copy the file in Producer and pasting it into Media, but
that doesn’t work either.

I need to transfer the file by IM to friends…but the file needs to be an
audio only file, not the Large Producer File it seems to be. I tried to send
it but the other party couldn’t receive such a large Producer file.

What could I be doing wrong? Why doesn’t Media understand the Producer audio?
How can I make a new file of the audio in .wma file format? Please help. Lynda

And I *still* don't get why she feels the need to post the same issue four
times within 32 minutes in the Publisher newsgroup when it has squat to do
with Publisher.

You know, I think you could be right.

Something tells me their problem has little to do with the software.
