stopping music files

I am inserting icons for several music examples on one slide. They are set to play when clicked. Problem is -- they continue to play while I'm trying to get another piece going (without changing slide). How can I program a stop music for each piece/icon?

Thanks
 
Hi,

What format are the music files? If you can get them as
wav files, they'll automatically stop when a new wav file
starts to play. MIDI files and MPG files will play over
each other. I was able to stop them by pressing the ESC
key. I tried adding a "stop previous sound" action
button, but it only stops WAV files from playing.

This site should help a lot:

Hello,

If you are using PowerPoint 2002 or 2003, you can take advantage of the
"trigger" feature for custom animations to create buttons which will play,
pause or stop your sounds.
