paste Excel Chart into Word changes the bar shading

M

michael

I have created several charts in Excel which I am trying to paste (or
otherwise put) into a Word document. When I copy / paste special, the
style of shading I have assigned to the different types of bars in
Excel appears differently in the Work document

Specificall, I have chosen, in Excel, to color a bar, I have chosen
Fill Effects > Pattern > diagonal striping (bottom row, 3rd from left)
for one type of data

When this Excel chart is pasted into Work, this shading becomes a solid
dark grey, not the diagonal striping I want. I have try all
combinations I can see in Paste Special - ie. paste vs paste link, and
As Excel Chart Object vs As Picture.

Suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
