SYMPTOMS
If you double-click a QuickTime movie that is embedded in a general field,
a dialog box with the following message is displayed:
The movie file "<name of movie>" cannot be found. Without this
file, the movie cannot play properly.
CAUSE
Because QuickTime movies can be very large in size, they can only be linked
to the general field rather than truly embedded. If a QuickTime movie is
linked to a general field, the movie must be able to be located for it to
be played.
RESOLUTION
Link the QuickTime movie to the field again so that the path to the movie
is updated.
