[LM_NET] HIT-Powerpoint sent w/out any sound

[Marya Kilbourne <loonlake14826@YAHOO.COM>]

Hello,

I have the answer.  Read 'em and weep:

I believe (and this is a guess based on past
experience) what happens  is that the sound files do
not get sent with the PPT. When you make the PPT, the
sound files are not really a part of the PPT.  PPT
goes to the location to play them.  You have to get
the PPT and the sound files tothe recipient. You can
zip the PPT and the sound files.  The recipient unzips
them and then the sound will play. It's possible that
there are
other solutions but that's what my tech support
advised me to do.

However, there are other software products are
web-based and eliminate  the tech mess involved here. 
Have you tried E-vite or Photostory?

And if you have a MAC, then all of this is child's
play in ilife.




You have to send the sound file separately. One of the
few shortcomings to ppt, in my opinion.

When I send ppts with sound, I make a zip file and
send it to the recipients, that way they get
downloaded into the same folder.


Thank you for the quick responses!
