embed online video as shockwave flash object - FlashVars keeps era

I want to embed a national geographic video in a ppt2007 slide. I have added
a shockwave flash object and gone to the properties to put the values
provided in national geographic's "embed" code in the proper fields. The
"movie" field is a URL to National geographic's flash player. The video I
want to embed is specified by a FlashVar tag. The first time I put this
information in the Properties table, the video plays just fine. When I save
the presentation and open it again, the FlashVar field is blank; the wrong
National geo video plays; I cannot add the correct FlashVar value because as
soon as I leave the field, the value disappears. Does anyone know what to
do? Here is the URL to get to the video with the embed code:
http://video.nationalgeographic.com/...nces-ggtu.html
