I'm a college professor who's just started using powerpoint extensively
in my classes. I use a Mac at home, but my school provides everyone
with PC's -- so far no problems going from one platform to the other.

My question is simple. I'd like to use music files (mp3 or wav) as
background to the presentations and have it run continously and not be
cut off everytime I change slides> Anyone know how to do this? TIA

Thank you greatly! My students already like the presentations, so this
will only make them that much more effective!
