Save a sequence of images as a QuickTime file?



I am having trouble saving a sequence of images as a QuickTime file with
Mathematica 3.0 on a Macintosh.  I have created a sequence of grouped
images with a command like:

Table[Show[Graphics[images[[i]]]],{i,nimages}];

They animate nicely by selecting the group & doing the front end menu
item "Animate Seected Graphics" under the Cell menu.

Now I would like to save the sequence as a QuickTime file.  So I select
the group & do the front end menu item "Save Selection As... QuickTime"
under the Edit menu.  When it is over I get a QuickTime file, but it
only has the first frame in it.

Am I doing something wrong?  How do I get the whole sequence into one
QuickTime file (besides saving each frame separately & joining them
outside Mathematica with a QuickTime editor)?  Is this the way it is
supposed to work?  Is there a bug?

Thanks for the help!
