[Issue] How do I embed Sound effects?
I'm making a Tic Tac Toe game in Impress for my students, and I am using some sound effects (from the default sound effects bank) with some of my animations. The issue I'm having is that when I copy my presentation to my USB stick, the sound effects don't work. I'm sure this is just a matter of imbedding the sound effects into the presentation, but I don't know how to do this. I feel like such a noob. Can anyone Help?

Main Menu: Insert / Movie and Sound
and the files must be in the same relative position when you move the presentation to the USB stick. Best probably to keep them in the sane directory as the Presentation.

Re: How do I imbed Sound effects?
Right. I understand that, but do I have to import the sound files that are already in the OpenOffice soundbank? (The sounds that are available through the drop-down menu in the animation options window) If so, which directory are they in? I've looked everywhere for them.
What I mean to say is, I know on PowerPoint that images won't show up on a version of a PPT that has been saved to a USB stick if you just dragged and dropped them into PowerPoint. I know that if you "Insert" the file into the PPT that PowerPoint automatically imbeds those pictures as part of the PPT. Does Impress not work similarly with sound files? Can you not just import them into the presentation and have them imbedded by doing so? You actually have to have a sound directory on the USB because Impress cannot "hard code" the sound files to the presentation? That seems odd.
