PowerPoint Presentation Background Music not working

G

Guest

I did a presentation on MS PowerPoint 2003 earlier and embedded the
presentation with a mp3 file as background music. The presentation works fine
from my PC, however all the email recipients of this presentation couldn't
hear the music at all, may I know what is it so? Have I missed out something
like 'packing' the music together before emailing? Thanks!

Only .wav files can be embedded into a powerpoint presentation...unless you
do some jiggery pokery with your mp3s detailed here...

Sounds/Movies don't play, images disappear or links break when I move or
email a presentation

Lindsay,

I put together a free add in (PFCExpress) that will package up all your
linked files (music, video, spreadsheets, etc.) and include them
automatically with your presentation for email. You can get a copy from;
