I can't seem to figure out how the heck to make an mpeg embeded so I can send
a link to an auto-run that doesn't need the file also?

can anybody help???

Movie files are always linked, never embedded.

If you are interested in sending a single file (even if it is fairly large),
then look over:

You can place the MPEG in the same folder as the presentation itself and
then copy the entire folder.

If you must embed (I don't recommend), here's a workaround:

Videos cannot be embedded. They are always linked.
