Thanks David for the info. I appreciate the help.
I need video as I make water sculptures and to show them inanimate is not
the best.

Dave,
After viewing your site, I still say WOW...very impressive work, even as
stills. But I can see why you want the video. I think you are going to need
to investigate streaming video, and perhaps a different program than
Publisher to build your site. Publisher is intended for static, simple
websites, and you are looking for a dynamic function that is beyond the
scope of Publisher.
If you want to stay with Publisher, then perhaps offer a link beside the
still picture, so the user can download and run the video. One of the things
you need to remember is that people are impatient, and if you try to embed
the video, and even if they are using broadband, they frequently will move
on, rather than wait for a big video file to load. I would also stay with
video formats that will work with the Windows Media Player, as everybody
that has a Microsoft OS, will have that installed, and will be able to play
the video after downloading. I would also make note of the file size, beside
the link, so people will have some idea of how long it will take to
download. I use broadband at my office, but get by with dial-up at my home
office. That means that it takes me about 5 minutes to download a 1 meg
file. I might take the time to download a video, especially of your work,
but I would like to know in advance, and have it be optional. Just my 2
cents worth...
And once again, I love your sculpture....and find it impressive even as a
still photo.
