This categorically does NOT work in Pages. I just tried it using a Finder Window containing a list of 13 movie files. When I copied the list and pasted into a new Pages document, I ended up with several pages of embedded movies. What DOES work, though, is pasting into a new TextEdit window, providing you first make sure that you change the format to plain text (Format > Make Plain Text). If left as Rich Text, the result is again a document full of embedded movies (after a L O N G wait!). It should also work in any other text editor that is plain text only, such as BBEdit, Text Wrangler, Espresso, etc. Peter Hinchliffe Apwin Computer Services FileMaker Pro Solutions Developer Perth, Western Australia Phone (618) 9332 6482 Mob 0403 046 948 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mac because I prefer it -- Windows because I have to. -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Settings & Unsubscribe - <http://lists.wamug.org.au/listinfo/wamug.org.au-wamug>
