John previously I had tried to covert the file from where the media
existed
in My Music folder. I extracted it directly from the cd and it worked.
Now
just curious about my previous mp3 and wav question to see if one will
work
if I want to send my presentation by e-mail? Thanks so much for
everything!

John,
Thanks--I downloaded the alto MP3 and added the song however it says it
can't decode the file-please install related codec for it. I have no
idea
where to get this. Can you advice how to do this?
Also am I picking up in what I read on other threads that I will not be
able
to email my powerpoint presentation with embedded music in this mp3
format?
Would I be able to if it was wav? I greatly appreciate advice.

Thanks Chris. If by end of day I don't have this figured out I may
e-mail
file to you. I think what has happened is when I download music to
windows
media player it is in the form of a wma file and I need to figure out
how to
change these files to wav or mpg? When I click on the album file
with list
of songs and select file type wav or mpg no song listings are
displayed but
will display if select all file types. Can you help me figure out
how to
download songs in right file format or does this even make sence?

Hello Steph

Sorry to hear you are struggling with the sound file. If you would
like
to email the file to me (don't mind how large it is), and let me
know
how many seconds of fade you want at the end of it, I'll be happy
to
do the edit for you, test it in PPT and email it back.

Click on "View Profile" in my name above in the header to this
message,
then click on the underlined dots in my email address to reveal my
full
address, but you can probably guess it anyway!!

Chris

The clue is in the answer...
