MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / August 2006How do I remove an embedded mp3 voice file from Powerpoint?
I embedded sound in Powerpoint files and now I need to remove them so that I can make changes to them to use in Producer which needs the files to be separated. How can I remove embedded sound files? Take note that only wav can be embedded. How do you insert the sound initially? Click on View > Zoom. Zoom out to about 25%. Did you see any sound icon on the slides? If so, simply remove them. Click Slide Show > Slide Transition. Under Modify Transition in the task pane, is the sound added there? If so, click on the sound dropdown field, and set to [No Sound].

How can I remove embedded sound files? Do you mean remove = delete them or extract them? If delete then Tohlz's methods should work or if youre stuck a little vba will zap them! Sub soundzap() Dim osld As Slide Dim oshp As Shape For Each osld In ActivePresentation.Slides For Each oshp In osld.Shapes If oshp.Type = msoMedia Then If oshp.MediaType = ppMediaTypeSound Then oshp.Delete End If End If Next oshp Next osld End Sub IUf you want to extract the sound save as a web page (html) and you'll get an html file + a folder of dependant files which will include the sound files.

How can I remove embedded sound files? Tohlz and John: Thanks for your reply. When I create PowerPoint files today and insert sound files, I can remove the embedded files using the save as html approach. However, the file in question was created in 2002, and this approach does create a separate folder of many files, but none of these files are sound files. Is there another solution for older files? > Do you mean remove = delete them or extract them? > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > can make changes to them to use in Producer which needs the files to be > > separated. How can I remove embedded sound files?

How can I remove embedded sound files? When I click on the sound icon and then click properties, I selected the Sound Recorder Document Object." From there, I do not get the choice to save as, only edit and then it automatically saves back into itself. Any other ideas? When I save as Web Page or htm, I get a folder of files of five types: .css, .gif, .htm, .jpg, .mso, .wmf and .xml. I did get sound files using this method.
