Subject:Word Roars Like Tiger From:"Karen E. Black" <kblack_text -at- hotmail -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 13 Dec 2002 17:00:05 -0500
Hi, I'd like my Word document (read-only) to roar like a tiger when someone
opens it (it's a self-training document for our time-tracking system --
called TimeTiger). I have the tiger_roar.wav file. Any easy macro or
hyperlink or field command I can use? Currently my PC doesn't have any sound
drivers or software on it.
Also, will this work in a PDF?
Thanks in advance!!

"The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap
between one's real and one's declared aims, one turns as it were
instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish
squirting out ink." --George Orwell
