I am interested in knowing if you can take sounds that I have recorded into Power Point 2000 for each of the slides and burn those sounds into a CD-R as individual sound tracks or even as a whole track. Sounds stupid but cool if its possible. Thanks for any advice from anyone that would know.
 
Yes, this might help you do what you want.

Play sounds across multiple slides (A WAV runs through it)

Sure. When you record the sound (assume you're talking narration), you
have the option to link the narration files. If you did that, just burn
those WAV files to a CD.

If you didn't do that, and so the sounds are embedded, do a File/Save As
and save your presentation as HTML. Your sounds will be extracted to the
resulting folder(s) created when you save as HTML.

If you need these individual sounds all as one track, you'll have to
combine them in sound editing software.
 
[CRITICAL UPDATE - Anyone using Office 2003 should install the critical
update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for
Updates".]

Hello,

PowerPoint does not have the specific capability that you are looking
(export embedded sound to files for re-use <such as recording to CD-R>).

If you (or anyone else reading this message) think that PowerPoint should
provide better content management tools for finding, EXPORTING, changing,
replacing, optimizing, deleting, etc. linked, embedded and native content
(without havuing to resort to workarounds VBA or 3rd party add-ins), don't
forget to send your feedback (in YOUR OWN WORDS, please)to Microsoft at:

As with all product suggestions, it's important that you not just state
your wish but also WHY it is important to you that your product suggestion
be implemented by Microsoft. Microsoft receives thousands of product
suggestions every day and we read each one but, in any given product
development cycle, there are only sufficient resources to address the ones
that are most important to our customers so take the extra time to state
your case as clearly and completely as possible.

IMPORTANT: Each submission should be a single suggestion (not a list of
suggestions).
