I have microsoft office 2003 and im making a power point how do i put music on it?

looking for step by step instructions best step by step wins

To make the music carry on playing

For older versions of PowerPoint

Select your music file then Right click (not the usual left click) and select Custom Animation. You can do this by selecting Slide Show > Custom Animation

Then select Multimedia Settings afterwards and make sure that you have selected Continue Slide show You will then need to set the Stop Playing button and enter in the Stop Playing > After number slides the number of slides that you would like the music to play for.

If you are using PowerPoint XP the procedure is slightly different

Custom Animation > Right Click on Media and select Effect Options You will then need to set the Stop Playing button and enter in the Stop Playing > After number slides the number of slides that you would like the music to play for.

This feature is very nice, for example, if you want to show a long presentation at a trade show.

I hope that this helps

I have done that many times and with voice overs as well. However ask this: Who will be opening the PPT? Adding sound takes a ton of memory to open.

from the insert menu, find <<sound>>.
or
from the insert menu, click on <<add objects>> and find <<sound>>
