Can i Record sound in Word outline mode

[Reema]

Hello,

Back on my 2003 Windows XP Word it used to be so freaking easy to go into outline mode and record sounds with my computer's microphone that corresponded with my notes. (Ideal for meetings, etc.)

I cannot for the life of me figure it out in my upgraded Windows Vista / Microsoft Word 2007. Can someone please tell me how to do this!?!?

Thanks so much in advance!

Yes it is possible to record a sound in word outline mode.For this you will do something like this:

Do one of the following:

On the Insert menu, click Object, and then click the Create from File tab.

To insert the sound file as a linked object (linked object: An object that is created in a source file and inserted into a destination file, while maintaining a connection between the two files. The linked object in the destination file can be updated when the source file is updated.), select the Link to file check box.
To display the file as an icon, select the Display as icon check box.

To insert a new sound file, you must have an audio input device such as a microphone.
