Powerpoint audio question

Is there a way to play a .wav file for the duration of a slide show, without having to alter something for every single slide? For example, I am creating a photo album and I would like to play a song while the pictures are displaying. I have around 50 slides and I would like the song to play continously through out these 50 slides.

I have played around with the audio in PP and I can't seem to find a way to have the audio stream through the slide show. The slides will not transition until the entire song is completed and that's not the effect I was looking for. Anybody know if this is possible?

Regards,
Corey
 
Sure, you can do that. Just insert the sound then on the menu select "Slide Show" then "Custom Animation" then under "Multimedia Settings" select "Continue Slide Show" then "Stop playing after xxx" where xxx is a number greater than the number of slides in your presentation.
 
Thank you so very much! That worked like a charm.
