  6. For example; if you are searching for Telephone sound clips, enter the word “Telephone” in the Search for: text box. There is no need to capitalize the search word(s).
  7. To insert sound clip, click on the drop down arrow and click insert. Once you have chosen the sound clip to play in your PowerPoint 2007 presentation, you will be prompted for whether to play this sound clip automatically when the slide is presented, or to play the sound on the click of the mouse.
