Adding sound

This was not covered during the day. How do you do this?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Adding sound

Hi Patricia, thanks for your query. From the Insert menu, select Movies and Sounds and then Sound From File. You can then navigate to an mp3 file and select it, and set when and how you want the sound to play when the slide is viewed in slideshow mode.

Sounds can also be added to buttons and played from CDs etc, so there are quite a few options available.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Powerpoint tip:

Doodling on your active slides

To add a little graphic interest during a presentation, switch on the Pen with Ctrl+P. Now your mouse can be used to draw on the slide. Ctrl+E switches on the Eraser to rub things out, and Ctrl+A brings back the Arrow.

At the end of the presentation you have the option to save or discard any un-erased doodlings.

Hi,
I have had several request from staff about how to switch off the auto completion of dates. I have found one solution via google, but feel there must be a more user friendly method!! (See below.) I can't find anything in the Word options.
Thank-yo..
