Embeding a movie into a presentation?

[Guest]

I would like to embed movies into my presentation -- so that when I send the
file to a client, they will only have to handle one file.

how do I do this? I know how to do it with Flash, but not movie files.
(To see how to embed Flash, check out:

Thanks!

Movies/videos are always linked. That cannot be overridden.

Sonia is right. Movies can only be linked.

But you can use package to CD, select the folder option and then send your
client the zipped folder (which will contain the movie file). Alternately,
if the movie is not that long, you could create a flash movie and embed
that.

Or, if the PPT is not that large or complicated and can be self-running and
you're on a Mac...you could export the whole thing as a Quicktime movie
(internal movie included.)

No simple solution, I'm afraid.
