Re: Intro + question

Hi Gail and welcome,

I have been able to do this as follows (I'm not sure all steps are 
necessary):

1. import music (MIDI) into Project
2. open backback
3. select Audio tab
4. right click on music icon and select "copy"
5. right click in Audio tab field and select "paste" (note music icon with 
name appears)
6. close backpack

well, I just got Wendy's answer to you, and of course, she (unlike me) 
actually read the instructions!

I then saved the turtle, killed MW, restarted, and imported the turtle.  For 
me, double-clicking on the turtle does not make the music play.  But when I 
issue a ... testturtle, branden ... from the Command Center, it does play 
(my turtle was named "testturtle" and the MIDI music was "BRANDEN."  Since 
it works from the Command Center, I'm pretty sure it will work in a 
procedure as well.

good luck,
Jeff
