Yes, it is. Where are you trying to download the Microsoft sound clips from?

Also, is this related to PowerPoint? You're in the PowerPoint newsgroup.
We've been known to get off-topic, so that's not a big problem, but if it is
related to PPT, it will help for us to know which version of PPT you're
working with.

Thanks. I accessed the clips by going through powerpoint to clips online but
don't really want to use it in powerpoint. I'd like to have the sounds on a
CD that could be played in a music player. Sorry for posting this in the
wrong place - i did say i wasn't computer literate!

Ok, then just follow the instructions to download the clips onto your
computer from Office Online (which is where PPT Clips Online takes you).

Then right-click your Start button and choose Search. Do a search on your
harddrive for the music files -- Probably searching for *.WAV, *.WMA, *.MP3,
*.MID, and *.MIDI will do it. (That would be 5 separate searches.)

You can copy those files to one folder until you're ready to burn your CD.
Use your CD burning software instructions from there.

Whether you burn an audio CD or a data CD depends on what kind of music
player you want to play the CD in.

What Echo said and also this:

If you are using PowerPoint 97 or 2000, you can drag the clips you need from
Clip Gallery to the desktop.

PowerPoint 2002 and 2003 users can drag the clips off the Clip Art task pane
to the desktop.

Once the clips are on the desktop, you can burn them on a CD.
