A pop-down menu opens. | | 5. | Select Objects from the menu. | | 6. | Scroll through the slides of the source movie and set the object destination to the blank slide added to the target movie. | | 7. | Click OK. |

|
| 5. | If you are importing a prerecorded sound, click the Import button in the Audio Options dialog box. When the Open dialog box appears, navigate to the folder containing the audio file and double-click the file to add it to the object. |
