Slide durations

[Jordan Bigio]

I should think that you set the max length on the soundout object in the
slide to 80000ms and set the duration on the slide object to be 80000ms.
But, if you have them varying, you will probably need to use a different
slide object for every wav file length that you have, so a particular slide
corresponds to a particular length of sound. Unless you know how to write
code and can program some different states for your slide object. That was
some advice that I recently got for a problem I was having, but I don't
know VBA and can't really write code. Hope this helps.
