Soory but I have one other thing I have to ad.

In my Video Properties I have the Video Templeate set to
NTSC DV 720 x 480

And my Pixel Rati to
0.909.1 DV NTSC
And when I render as this my Videos comeout Looking Widescreen and I don't want this.
I want it to look like the tipical 4 : 3

Is this because my Pixel Ratio is set to 0.909.1 DV NTSC??????????

Because I do see a Pixel Ratio that says 1,0000 Square But I don't know if I can use this with my Templeate of DV NTSC 720 x 480.

Please help

720x480 at 0.9091 is considered 4:3. However, project properties don't determine the output you get. You must be picking a widescreen template when you render. This overrides the project settings.

1) Click on the Event Pan/Crop icon at the tail end of the clip, choose 4:3 Standard TV aspect ration preset, close the Event Pan/Crop window.
2) Right click on the event in the timeline and choose Properties, uncheck Maintain aspect ratio (to get rid of the thin black bars on the left and right edges.
3) Make Movie, using your NTSC DV template
