How to drag wav files when copying pps between computers

[Guest]

I copied a Powerpoint presentation from my desktop to laptop, for display
purpose, and had to reassign paths for each wav file, so that music was
available to play on the laptop. How can l link the music to the ppt or pps
presentation?
Help would be much appreciated.

Hi Ronald,
If the music is in wav format, you can embed the music into the
presentation. If you are using other format, you can also try to convert the
music into wav format using sound convertor. By doing so, the music will be
embedded into the presentation (preventing the link from breaking) and you do
not have to email the music.

Alternately for non-wav format,
Create a new folder and move the ppt and music into the folder.
Now, open the ppt file, delete and reinsert the music to create a pathless
link.
Then, save your presentation.
Email both the presentation and music.

Read about how to embed your music into the presentation, where to download
sound convertors and other related information here:
