Microsoft Article : 945002
SYMPTOMS
Consider the following scenario:
•You apply a design theme to a presentation in Microsoft Office PowerPoint
2007.
•You insert an embedded Microsoft Office Excel chart object into a slide in
the presentation.
•You save the presentation in the PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation (*.ppt)
format.
In this scenario, when you open the presentation in Microsoft Office
PowerPoint 2003 and then edit the chart, the theme information that is
applied to the chart is lost. Instead, the default Microsoft Office color
theme is applied to the embedded Excel chart object. Additionally, the text
in the chart changes, and the chart shrinks.
Note This problem also occurs if you create a .doc file by using Microsoft
Office Word 2007. Then, when you edit the chart object in Microsoft Office
Word 2003, you experience these symptoms.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because PowerPoint 2007 cannot pass the theme
information to the embedded Excel object when you save the presentation in
the PowerPoint 97-2003 Presentation (*.ppt) format. When you edit the chart
in PowerPoint 2003, Excel has no connection to the theme information that is
applied in the presentation. Therefore, the theme information for the chart
is lost. Additionally, the default Office color theme for the chart is
applied.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:
•Do not edit the chart in PowerPoint 2003.
•If you edit the chart in PowerPoint 2003, remove the chart. Then, use
PowerPoint 2007 to reinsert the chart.
