1) Create/edit the loop in a sound editing program.  It has to start and

end at places that make a nice loop when it's spliced to itself.  A program

such as the shareware CoolEdit (Syntrillium.Com) will help you do this.

Save it in a format Flash recognizes (I use .wav);


2) Import the sound into your Flash movie (File > Import).  It will now

appear in your library.


3) Insert a layer for the sound.  Put a keyframe where you want it to

start.  Double-click for Frame Properties.  Select the Sound tab.


4) In that window, a) select the sound from the drop-down list of sounds

available in your library; b) choose"Event" for the type of sound, and c)

type in a large number for the number of loops (I use 999).


Consider providing a button that toggles the sound loop on and off.  But

that's another (and longer) explanation.
