using chart templates

[jeff]

I upgraded to 07 this year. The charting capabilities are greatly improved
but I'm having difficulty using the chart template function.

Here is the scenario:
I have 10 charts that need reformatting. I reformatted one and saved as a
template. Then when I go to change the chart type for the remaining 9, it
adjust the formatting but all the data is lost.

Can't figure out why it's doing it.

Hi Jeff,

We always welcome new Mac users to the fold, but apparently you're not ready
yet. Somehow your posting wound up here in the Mac PowerPoint newsgroup.

This link might be more useful to you until you're ready to switch.
