Is there a way to separate or remove the sound in a movie file (extention
MSWMM or WMV) and then save it.

I imported a video file from my camera ( a short movie showing the outside
of our house) and of course the
street sound came with it. I would like to remove this from the story board
and save only this sound clip (without
the movie clip) to my hard drive as a sound file to be added to different
video file.

Can this be done in Microsoft Movie Maker?

======================================
An .mswmm file is just a project file...the source files
would still be archived in their original locations and
could be copied from there.

To separate the audio from a .wmv file in Vista Movie
Maker. Begin a new project and in Timeline view try
dragging the .wmv file the the Audio/Music track and
Publish the movie. The result should be a .wma audio
file.

Be sure the clip is dragged all the way to the left end
of the track or you will have dead air.
