I am new to word and after reading through some of the posts here I
realize most of the MVPs don't have Word 2000 installed anymore but
maybe someone can still help me out.
My current supervisor has assigned me a task to create for him a word
document with text, pictures and music playing upon opening the file.
The latest version of office installed on our work PCs is 2000 and I
do not have any version on my home PC. I have managed to create
everything except the song he wants to play and finally exhaused all
my resources. I did manage to go to the toolbar, Insert; Objects;
create from file, and inserted the sound file (wav format) into my
document. But that's as far as my knowledge goes and I don't know how
to make it play when you open the word document. I know it's in there
somewhere because when I click on edit the drop down box has a sound
recorder document object there but going through those options has
not helped me out and I'm stumped. Is this even possible? My
employer seems to be convinced it is and wont take 'I have no idea'
for an answer. My job may be on the line.......can anyone help me
with this?
Thank you,

You'd probably need to write an 'On-Open-Document' macro to play the music
file when you open the document. Not exactly sure how you'd do that, but
that is where I think you should start looking...
