Playing movies in multimedia fields
When a field contains a QuickTime movie, you see a preview image of the
movie.
To play a movie in a multimedia field, in Browse or List mode, double-click
the field containing the movie. To pause the movie, click outside the field.
Important If a database document includes a multimedia field that displays
movies, and you move the document to a different computer, you must move
the movie files to the same computer.
