You would do better if you compared what you have reproduced here with what
is actually on Greg's web page (albeit there is a typo in his instructions)?

Sub Sound() ?

I tried to insert the macro for playing sound in a word document. The
steps are very straight forward. When I try to test the script in the
editor I get a comple error that goes something like ..."Only
comments may appear after End-Sub, End-Function or End-Property".

What should I do to correct this error?

Here is what the script looks like in the editor;

Sub Sound()

Option Explicit
Private Declare Sub PlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" _
(ByVal lpszName As String, _
ByVal hModule As Long, _
ByVal dwFlags As Long)
Private Const SOUND_FILENAME = &H20000

Sub AutoOpen()
Dim sndFileName As String
Dim i As Long
'Note: Change the next line to point to your sound file.
sndFileName = "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My
Stuff\Chicago Bears\SuperBowlShuffle.mp3"
PlaySound sndFileName, 0&, SOUND_FILENAME
End Sub

I understand that you can 'embed' all sorts of sound file types
into a MS Word document. It would be very helpful if you can do
that with an MP3 file. If there is a way to do that, I would like
to know how.

Again, thanks in advance to anyone with some good information about
how to possibly do this!!

Is it possible to create a Word Document that will have an MP3
sound file as
a background sound, that can be 'embedded' in the document so
that the document can be sent to multiple users?
