Action button that starts multiple items

I want an action button that starts a wav file and an avi at the same time.
I am using PowerPoint 2000. The custom animation function only allows me to
play a song during the entry transition. Do I need some kind of macro? I
am weak with PowerPoint.

Thanks
 
Hi Ketta,

To kind of, sort of get your button to do this, you could
put the avi file on a slide and set custom animations to
play the avi (media) file automatically after 0 seconds.
On the same slide, click on Slide Show, Slide Transition,
and set the sound to be your WAV file. Finally, set your
action button to go to this slide. Hypothetically, this
would do what you want, but I don't think you can play a
wav file with an avi file at the same time, even if the
avi file doesn't have sound. You really need a video
editor to add the sound to the video.

Try going to www.pptfaq.com and search on video to see
some options.

HTH,
Glenna
