Guest

I am trying to paste a excel chart that is on its own
sheet in excel to powerpoint page. But it cuts the right
side of the chart off. usually the legend is cut short.
But if you
copy a chart thats mixed on a page with other data &
charts it works fine. ?????? #$%6& I hate computers!

Change the location of your chart

right click on it, select location, then choose as a new
sheet. copy and paste from there and it should work

You might want to check your options in PowerPoint, but not under
"Options".

Tools > Auto Correct > Format As You Type

Uncheck the last item ("Automatic layout for inserted objects").

This is what I do to copy an excel spreadsheet to a powerpoint
presentation. First make sure the spreadsheet is in its own file:

In Powerpoint:
1. Insert
2. Object
3. Bullet the Create File Section
4.Browse
5. Find the file you want to insert
6. OK to finish

By doing this, you can modify as if you were in Excel. This option
sizes
it automatically to fit on a full page.

Let me know how you make out.
