Analog-to-DV-to-MovieMaker conversion

Recently purchased a Sony HC-40 camcorder, where one of my first objectives
is to take selected analog video and use the HC-40 to convert to digital
video and bring into MovieMaker.

I can get the Analog video to record on DV on HC-40, and I can get the HC-40
to pass video into MovieMaker on my Dell/XP desktop, BUT I cannot seem to get
the analog to pass through the HC-40 directly into MovieMaker. The Sony
documentation indicates that there is way to do this, but looking for
information on how to REALLY make it happen.

It's not possible with MM2, if you update to SP2 and get MM2.1 then it is
again possible, as it was with MM1. If you don't want to update to SP2, then
look at www.papajohn.org and in there he has a link to a download you can
use to pass through.
