Chuck,
The animation process changed considerably (for the better, in my opinion)
with PPT 2002. When you bring up custom animations, you get a task pane on
the right side of your desktop. To change how long your sound will play,
bring up that task pane. An animation should show for your sound object.
Right click the animation and bring up "Effect Options" (You can do this
with the drop down for the animation as well.) On the "Effect" tab, you will
see options for starting and stopping the sound. Set the stop animation to
be "After: ___ Slides", with the number set to the number of slides you want
it to play through.
A word of warning: If you want any of the sounds to start anywhere but the
beginning of the track, you will want to edit it outside of PPT to remove
the un-wanted segment. Otherwise, it may not start and stop as you wish.
Let us know if this fixes your problem. If it doesn't, let us know if it
changes anything.

Subject: [mso] Power Point Question
I developed a Power Point presentation that had an audio track. There
are about 135 slides with 3 different audio tracks. I wanted the
music to play through roughly 35 slides, each presented automatically
for 4 seconds. I originally did this in Office 97. I then copied the
presentation to my laptop which is running Office 2002. When I tried
to run the presentation only the first music track was played. When I
tried to troubleshoot the presentation, I could not find the same
checkboxes that PP97 had. Of course, I couldn't find it in the HELP
either.
Can someone help me out with this. I would like to know how MS
performs this seemingly simple task in Office 2002.
Regards
Chuck
