Oct last year, as it happens, I wrote "Set up all the slides, go back to the first one and go to 'slide transition' (R edge of screen, at least here!). Use 'modify transition', and select 'other sound...' in the dropdown box. Pick the sound file wanted. Do /not/ "apply to all slides" or it will restart for each slide. I've not tried 'loop'. Not obvious, and the help file is hopeless. (2.3 on XP, btw)" which should provide enough to get you started. Or you can search the archives if you're still stuck. > > > That could well be :-) I suspect they're implemented differently. > > Then how do you transfer the sound track from PowerPoint to Impress.

Offhand, as a nasty workaround, maybe extract the audio if necessary by re-recording it, and then insert into Impress.
