@ Nicky makes a compelling case. But then she's an ex-trainee of mine, so I'm easily convinced ;-)

@ "It's best if you can pull the audio out of the video file" seems to be the verdict. I suspect life is too short!

Thanks everyone for your help. Meanwhile waiting for Zamzar support team to see what they can do. My fault for being seduced by technology!

@ Hmm. I get error message, and .mov is not one of the suffixes listed. Maybe my ppt is out of date?? But Zamzar have offered to help

@ Yes, it's QT mov file format, but just audio. I can play it off the laptop, but that might involve f*ff*ng.

@ It's an audio file. Tried to import it, rejected (ppt doesn't recognise) so tried conversion. Now Zamzar are tweeting me too!

@ The conversion I guess. Email says there was a problem. Tried .mov to .wav twice, then .mov to .avi. No go.
