Problems inserting Media Clips.

Using PP 2002 SP3 I wanted to include a movie clip in, *.avi, in my
presentation but couldn't. Help say's;

Under Object Type, click Media Clip, and make sure Create new is
selected.

But Media Clip is not listed as an option on my system!

How do I enable this facility?

I have worked around the problem by renaming the clip *.mpg, and it
plays as wanted, but I'd still like to know how to make my system
reflect what PP Help says.
 
I think that that Help entry should be removed for exactly the reason you're
running into -- that is, media clip is not always an option in the list!

IIRC, Windows XP SP-2 might be one thing that removes it. And I wouldn't
recommend uninstalling WinXP SP-2 just to get that media clip option.

I'd say use the workaround that works for you and ignore the Help on this one.
