SYMPTOMS
When you insert a packaged .WAV file into version 2.0 of Word for Windows running in Microsoft Windows version 3.1, you may receive a general protection (GP) fault when playing the sound.

WORKAROUND
Instead of using Packager to insert the .WAV file into a document, insert the sound directly.


 * 1) Run Word for Windows.
 * 2) From the Insert menu, choose Object.
 * 3) Choose Sound and choose the OK button.
 * 4) Sound Recorder will start.
 * 5) From the Edit menu, choose Insert File.
 * 6) Load one of the sample .WAV files in the Windows directory.
 * 7) From the File menu, choose Exit.
 * 8) When prompted to Exit and Update, choose Yes.

The sound object (.WAV) is now inserted into the document.
