I'm trying to embed a video file larger than a couple megabytes and it won't
attach itself into the document when I try to send it. This is for a project
for school and it's due in a couple weeks. Any suggestions on how to
configure Word to let it embed a larger file?

You are trying to send a multi-megabyte file via e-mail? Thank God it
doesn't work! I know people who operate on dial-up with speeds as low as 24
kbps, who pay by the minute! Not everyone has access to high speed broadband
services. This issue has nothing to do with Word, but more to do with the
sensible limits imposed on e-mail messages. If this project is essential for
your school work then find another way of producing it - CDR would be one,
posting it to web space which people could access another. You could even
use Messenger to send the file, but e-mail ......

Well Graham Mayor, I wasn't trying to e-mail it. I'm trying to burn it to a
cd-r for my professor and it won't attatch to the document so that I can burn
it. I sent it via messenger to someone with broadband, I wasn't sending a
mass e-mail to everyone who wanted it. I'm really looking for suggestions on
how to do this so I can burn it to a cd and give it to my professor. So any
suggestion out there for this?

Otterbein Student:
O.K., here is a Word document that describes how to do what you're trying to
do.

Also, try the Help file; Search for: "Insert a video file"

In that case you might clarify what you mean by 'send' in your original
message. Even allowing for translation problems, it's hard to see another
interpretation.

Have you tried linking rather than embedding?
