wav files on power point

[Bill]

Ideveloped a slide show with songs with a wav. extention.
When I played it on another computer, no sound came out.
I think it was lookij for the song on the user's c:
drive. If I pull put the music on the same disc. as the
slideshow, will it play the music. I am also new to
powerpoint, so please try to keep it simple (KIS).

 

[Sonia]

Go to Tools > Options > General and change the size limit there to 50000. That
will cause all WAV files (not other formats) to be embedded in your presentation
if they are not larger than 50 MB.

Make a note of your presentation file's current size. Now, delete the WAVs from
your presentation and reinsert them. Save the presentation. The file size
should grow by an amount equal to the combined sizes of the WAV files.

What Sonia said, and for more information, look at "Sounds/Movies don't play,
images disappear or links break when I move or email a presentation" from the
