recorded an Audio in Producer, but Windows Media Cannot open the f

[nurenbrg[removethis]]

I recorded an audio with Microsoft Producer, at the end of the recording I
saved the file in an audio folder. When I see the file in Producer it appears
as a Windows Media [.wma] file in the folder I had selected. The file has the
icon of a WM file and is in a Project within Producer.

When I open the file from Microsoft Publisher, it cannot open the file as it
soesn't understand the format. I cannot find any reason the file should not
open. The odd part is that when you look for .wma files nothing shows up in
the file; when you look at All Files [*.*] there the file is and this time
the icon is a Producer icon.

Why is it a media file in Producer and a Producer file when in Media? Why
cann't I open it in Media? Why can't I copy the file and save it as a .wma
file [tried that & this only makes a copy of the Producer file again.] Why
can't I copy and paste the file from Producer to Media?

I cannot transfer the huge Producer Project file via Instant Message to
others so they could open and save it as a .wma file. This should be a very
easy process and Microsoft products should understand each other. Please
help. Lynda

Why do people think that just because a company makes two products they
should be always be interchangeable? Sony makes TVs and computers but you
can't create a greeting card on all Sony televisions, can you? Or watch
reruns of Gilligan's Island on all Sony computers, can you? What about Kraft
Foods? Do you get upset when you add Tang to pasta you don't get Mac and
Cheese?
