| Michael,
| Thank you sooo much. I used Nero and it worked great. I have one more
| problem. The slide show starts on the second slide. The first slide is
the
| title slide and has the music icon. I have 8 songs on my slide show so I
| advanced to the slide where the second song would go on and it worked
great.
| I already have the "all slides" checked off in my presentation. Please
help!
