I have load my pictures. I put on the narration. Can anyone tell me how
to add background music. All of my attempts have failed. Perhaps it is
not even possible.

===========================
Save your project that includes the
pictures and narration in a movie format...
(if you need info on saving...I've posted
some instructions at the end of this message)

Then re-import the movie file and drag
it to the timeline. The narration will now
be on the Audio track and the Audio /
Music track will be clear...

Now you can add your music to the Audio/
Music track. Now..save the completed file.

To save as a .wmv movie file...
Type...Ctrl+P to open the Save Movie Wizard /
Choose...My Computer /
Next /
Enter a Name and a Save Location /
Next /
Tick...'Best Quality For My Computer'
Next/
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...

Also, you may find it useful to use

(and several other options)

Enter a Name and a Save Location /

Other Settings /
Open the drop window and choose...DV-AVI /
Next /
Wait while the movie is saved /
Finish...
