How can I play an embedded wave file in Word 2003 using VBA?

[Dustin]

I'm trying to make a document with embedded wave audio to get feedback on the
sounds. Unfortunately I cant seem to find out how, in Word, to get the
object name for an embedded ojbect. It's easy in PowerPoint, but I catn find
anything similar in Word. Help!

Embedded objects are usually Shapes or InlineShapes.

Sorry, WordHeretic, that really doesn't appear to be of much assistance to
me...could you explain some more detail?

Once you know the index of the object within the collection of
InlineShapes, try this:

Selection.InlineShapes(n).OLEFormat.DoVerb VerbIndex:=wdOLEVerbPrimary
