Jack,
I am a new user to PowerPoint and I am working with version 2003. I am
trying to put together a picture slide show for a friend and I would like to
add music to the back ground. The slide show is long enough for three songs.
How can I have the music start when slide one starts and have the music
continue until the end of the slide show?

Thank you for your assistance
