How to synchronize presentation length with sound length?

[Nathan Gutman]

Using PP2003. Is there a way to automatically set slide and transition times
to match the length of the sound so that the slideshow and the music start
and stop at the same time?
Thanks,

Unfortunately this is not the answer. It appears that PP just can not do it.
Some other dedicated slideshow making software seems to have a system where
the length of the sound is calculated then the length of the slide display
plus transitions is automatically adjusted to the length of the song(s).
This is what I am looking for in PP.

Your not going to find it in PowerPoint. I usually get the total time for my
sound file, then adjust the transition times to match. Which may work fine
on your computer, but may not on other computers. the time of the sound file
will not vary, but the transition times could dependent on the speed of the
components of the host computer
