HI,


The slide show with sound works great on Microsoft version 97, but if we try
to run it on 2002, the slide advances before the sound file is finished
playing.  It's not even waiting as long as the time we have set before
advancing. Any suggestions to troubleshoot?

Thanks,
Jerry
 
You may just need to go in and adjust your slide transition timing.

PPT 97 read transitions times differently than later versions of PPT. Lemme see if I can find the documentation...

Ah, here it is.

I know this isn't really the issue you posted about, but I suspect that the way 97 handles timings differs enough from other versions that it's actually what's causing the issue.

So try increasing the transition timing in 2002. If that doesn't work, then you might just need to review the sound settings and reset them in 2002.
